ABSTRACT
Green suggested that two temporal axes permeate Freud’s work:the genetic, that articulates development with the biologicaldimension of the individual’s life, on the one hand, and the structural, present in Freud’s various models of the mind, on the other. They are associated with spatial configurations-unconscious, preconscious, and conscious in the topographical model of the mind, and the id, ego, and superego, in the structural model (2002).
