foucault
In 1965, Alain Badiou interviewed Michel Foucault. The interview, intitled "Philosophie et Psychologie", was edited and later published in Dits et Écrits (french edition, vol. 1). Currently, the interview was published in youtube. The content of the interview, as can be viewed below, is different of the edited version on Dits et Écrits. Therefore is very usefull the consultation, that relieves new information regarding the subjects in question (relationships between psychology and philosophy), and several aspects of foucauldian thought, out of the edited and printed version.

Mitchell S. Green “Self-Expression". Oxford University Press, USA
Mitchell S. Green presents a systematic philosophical study of self-expression - a pervasive phenomenon of the everyday life of humans and other species, which has received scant attention in its own right. He explores the ways in which self-expression reveals our states of thought, feeling,
and experience, and he defends striking new theses concerning a wide range of fascinating topics: our ability to perceive emotion in others, artistic expression, empathy, expressive language, meaning, facial expression, and speech acts. He draws on insights from evolutionary game theory, ethology,
the philosophy of language, social psychology, pragmatics, aesthetics, and neuroscience to present a stimulating and accessible interdisciplinary work.

Sartre, J. P.: What is Literature? (1949)
>> –
sartre
"If you want to engage yourself," writes a young imbecile, "what are you waiting for? Join the Communist Party." A great writer who engaged himself often and disengaged himself still more often, but who has forgotten, said to me, "The worst artists are the most engaged. Look at the Soviet painters" An old critic gently complained, "You want to murder literature. Contempt for belles-lettres is spread out insolently all through your review." A petty mind calls me pigheaded, which for him is evidently the highest insult. An author who barely crawled from one war to the other and whose name sometimes awakens languishing memories in old men accuses me of not being concerned with immortality; he knows, thank God, any number of people whose chief hope it is. In the eyes of an American hack-journalist the trouble with me is that I have not read Bergson or Freud; as for Flaubert, who did not engage himself, it seems that he haunts me like remorse. Smart-alecks wink at me, "And poetry? And painting? And music? You want to engage them, too?" And some martial spirits demand, "What's it all about? Engaged literature? Well, it's the old socialist realism, unless it's a revival of populism, only more aggressive."What nonsense. They read quickly, badly, and pass judgment before they have understood. So let's begin all over. This doesn't amuse anyone, neither you nor me. But we have to hit the nail on the head. And since critics condemn me in the name of literature without ever saying what they mean by that, the best answer to give them is to examine the art of writing without prejudice. What is writing? Why does one write? For whom? The fact is, it seems that nobody has ever asked himself these questions.

Edmund Husserl: El Artículo “Fenomenología” de la Enciclopedia Británica
>> –
husserl
«Fenomenología» designa un nuevo método descriptivo que hizo su aparición en la filosofía a principios de siglo y una ciencia apriórica que se desprende de él y que está destinada a suministrar el órgano fundamental para una filosofía rigurosamente científica y a posibilitar, en un desarrollo consecuente, una reforma metódica de todas las ciencias. Al mismo tiempo que esta fenomenología filosófica, pero sin distinguirse al principio de ella, surgió una nueva disciplina psicológica paralela a ella en cuanto al método y al contenido: la psicología apriórica pura o «psicología fenomenológica», la cual, con un afán reformador, pretende ser el fundamento metódico sobre el cual pueda por principio erigirse una psicología empírica científicamente rigurosa. La demarcación de esta fenomenología psicológica, más cercana al pensamiento natural, es quizá conveniente como introducción propedéutica para elevarnos a la comprensión de la fenomenología filosófica.
Mattar and Sá: The meanings of “analysis” and “analytics” in Heidegger’s thinking and its implications for psychotherapy

Abstract:
Mattar, C. M; Sá, R. N. (2008) Os sentidos de “análise” e “analítica” no pensamento de Heidegger e suas implicações para a psicoterapia. Estudos e Pesquisas em Psicologia V8n2. Rio de Janeiro.This study deals with some of the main concepts of daseinsanalytical psychotherapy, inspired by the thinking of German philosopher Martin Heidegger. To fulfill this aim, it begins by expliciting the choice of the term “analytics” (Analytik) made by Heidegger in his piece Being and Time (1927) instead of “analysis” (Analyse). It points out the difference in meaning between both terms, highlighting the modern detachment from the original meaning of “analysis”, which reduces it to a decomposition of elements, in an analogy to Chemistry. However, analysis comes from the Greek analisein, which means the unweaving of a web, or freeing, releasing someone or something from his/its ties. The term analytics, used by Kant and resumed by Heidegger, does not lead to a disintegration of the phenomenon, but to its original character, to its meaning, its condition of possibility. Analytics weaves and unweaves to free the meaning that makes fabric possible, to catch a glimpse of the very activity of weaving and unweaving. This is the way through which Heidegger will understand analytics. Daseinsanalyse, the analysis of existence, is defined by him in Zollikon Seminars as the ontic exercise of ontological analysis carried out in Being and Time. It is possible, then, to think of Daseinsanalyse as the exercise of analytics in practice, which elaborates thematically the factual existence of the client, submitting it to its constitutive existential-ontological structures. This unweaving, guided by analysis, frees existing to all that summons it as an opening in meaning, helping it become present to all beings, including itself, through reflection. After presenting the ideas of two Swiss psychiatrists who established a relationship between Heidegger’s philosophy and practice, Ludwig Binswanger and Medard Boss, the article proposes some ways through which the psychotherapist can guide his/her attitudes according to Daseinsanalyse. Once the demands of existential suffering, addressed to psychotherapeutical practice, are more and more related to a historical leveling of meaning which can be accounted in the global figures of exploitation and consume, it is indispensable, so that psychotherapy can be a space for reflection which allows other ways of existing, that psychotherapy itself does not remain acritically subordinate to this same historical horizon of reducing meaning.
Keywords: Analytics, Analysis, Psychotherapeutical Practice, Daseinsanalyse.
