KOENIGSBERG ON NORMAN O. BROWN'S Life Against Death (see below citations from LIFE AGAINST DEATH below):

The bizarre notion that psychoanalysis has to be limited to the "clinical situation." The unconscious is operative at all time and at all places. Unconscious phantasies are constantly, endlessly  projected outward. Phantasies create and sustain the world we actually live in.

Not just mythology, Brown says, but the "entirety of culture is a projection." The world we create, the world of slums and telegrams and newspapers is a "language of our inner wishes and thoughts."

Built into social science projects--sociology and anthropology--is a denial mechanism: they are founded on and constituted by denial: the desperate attempt to disconnect human creations--the worlds of slums and telegrams and newspapers and wars and genocides--from their human sources.

What a fatuous idea: to imagine that events and activities occurring "out there" are somehow "going on by themselves."

Religious thinkers like Foucault and Lacan imagine a mysterious world of "discourse" and "the symbolic order," suggesting a "world apart," a world imposed on human beings. Some "thing" or some "body" up there loves. We are not responsible. 

NORMAN O.BROWN, PAGE 170—The repressed unconscious can become conscious only by being transformed into an external perception, by being projected.  According to Freud, the mythological conception of the universe, which survives even in the most modern religions, is only psychology projected onto the outer world.  Not just mythology but the entirety of culture is a projection.  In the words of Spender, "The world which we create—the world of slums and telegrams and newspapers—is a kind of language of our inner wishes and thoughts."

There is nothing for psychoanalysis to psychoanalyze except these projections—the world of slums and telegrams and newspapers—and thus fulfills itself only when it becomes historical and cultural analysis. 

It also follows that consciousness of the repressed unconscious is itself a cultural and historical product, since the repressed unconscious can become conscious only be being transformed into an external perception in the form of a cultural projection.
