ABSTRACT
Philosophy, Psychoanalysis and Emancipation, Volume 5 of the Collected Papers of Herbert Marcuse, presents for contemporary readers Marcuse’s unique syntheses of philosophy, psychoanalysis, and critical social theory, directed toward human emancipation and social transformation. Within these disciplines, Marcuse critically engaged disparate currents ranging from Heidegger and phenomenology to Hegel, Marx, Dewey, and Freud to create unique philosophical perspectives and analyses, often overlooked in favor of his social theory and political interventions with the New Left, the subject of previous volumes.
