According to Ambassador Arjan of Iran (Ambassador Arjan); The "Philosophical Foundations of Freud's Theories" meeting was organized by the Phoenix publishing group on the 7th of October this year at the Phoenix publishing meeting hall. This meeting is the first program of the series of meetings "from psychoanalysis to schizo analysis" which will be held for the genealogy of the term "schizo analysis" and its conceptual development for those interested in research in contemporary philosophy. This term was coined by two French thinkers, Deleuze and Guattari, and it is a relatively new term in the field of philosophical concepts.
My Freud transformed Descartes
At the beginning of the first meeting, Farzad Karimi, the secretary of the meeting, spoke about the need to talk about Freud and the philosophical foundations of his theories. Schizophrenia is rooted in Lacanian psychoanalysis, and it is impossible to know Lacan's philosophy without going back to Freud and exploring the philosophical foundations before him, which was finally created by Freud as a concept called "unconscious". It is possible to reject the unconscious, even the western classical philosophy, but if we put Descartes as a basis for this genealogy, it can be said that the Cartesian ego is a thinking ego that is simple and essential. Freud takes this idea from philosophy but transforms it. In this transformation, the ego is no longer a simple and essential being. The Freudian ego is a subject who, in addition to receiving emotions, also plays a role in the development of the emotions that enter him, that is, a subject who is thinking something in himself. Karimi also pointed to the long-standing challenge of philosophy and psychology and gave an example of Frege's letter to Husserl in his sharp criticism of his book "Philosophy of Account" and concluded that he considered the philosophical foundations of the founding theories of psychoanalysis to be interesting and worthy of discussion from this point of view.
Another speaker of this meeting was Amirhossein Yazdani, a psychologist and researcher in the interdisciplinary fields of philosophy, sociology and psychoanalysis. He started his speech by stating two introductions for the discussion. The first introduction is about the philosophical tradition that started with Christian Wolff, continued with Kant and reached Freud. In Freud, we are faced with a development that, while it is related to all his predecessors, also has an obvious distinction. There are many philosophical ideas in Freud that are sacrificed to the necessity of continuing the psychoanalytical movement, such as the idea of synthesis. The second introduction is that when Lacan talks about returning to Freud, he means the first Freud, the young Freud and the three treatises on sexuality. When Freud begins to interpret, we face an opening. But this is only part of the story. The second part of the story is how what is opened is reassembled, where is it reassembled and how does one experience himself from now on? In fact, in secondary psychoanalysis, we synthesize, we reconstruct the historical narrative of the individual and the individual's past. For this reason, psychoanalysis finds a relationship with philosophy. The work of philosophy is to create a new concept.
In order to do the work of interpretation, Freud goes to the neurotic man. Lacan deals with the concept of paranoia. He moves the passage about the paranoid man, i.e. psychoanalysis, and then when we get to Deleuze and Guattari, he talks about the schizophrenic man. A neurotic person, a paranoid person, and a schizophrenic person are like three different areas of a person. It can be said that a person is disturbed when the process of self-creation is interrupted for some reason. A neurotic person becomes a patient when he cannot exert force on a partial object. In Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, book 6, paragraph 1140, Aristotle talks about the state of true creation. Here we are also talking about the technique and the relationship between this technique and creation in the psychological matter, so we can also talk about psychopoesis instead of psychoanalysis. McIntyre shows how the Freudian unconscious is Aristotelian, and perhaps the concept of deferred action defined by Freud is the best argument for it.
The third speaker was Shahabuddin Qanatir, PhD in visual arts research and a researcher in the field of ancient culture and languages, the philosophy of Deleuze and Guattari and its mathematical roots. He started his discussion with the concept of space-time and its importance in philosophical discussions and Freud's theories. In the history of philosophy, Indians have dealt with this concept one way, Iranians one way, Mesopotamia one way, Egyptians one way and Greeks another way. These interactions all have similarities and differences. Freud does this reading from a Greek and Christian point of view and engages with all these concepts. In Iranian thought, space-time has an end for the first time in the entire history before itself, that is, the rearrangement of existence, that is, an existence is created again.
Hegel uses this and bases his philosophy. For him, the first period of philosophy or history belonged to the Iranian empire, followed by Greece. In Marx's thinking, there was an initial commune, after which the classes were confused. In both Hegel and Marx, we want to reach a horizon, or a carpet tour is going to take place to determine a goal for history. Neither in Greece, nor in India, nor in the Mesopotamia, history is without purpose. The only place where time has been targeted is Iran.
Mathematics also existed before Greece. It was very complicated in Egypt and it existed in the civilization of Elam. We had a school of mathematics in Susa, about 2,500 years before Plato was born, and its tablets are also available. Euclidean space-time is linear space-time. Man can move very cubic on this Euclidean space, like a chess game, from which it is impossible to get out. This principle becomes the principle of philosophy; What we call logic today. The logic comes from the fact that you can't move every time. Why is this move important? Because it is important for the police. Everything is understood through the Logos and the Police. Man lives in the city. Being in the city requires logos, it requires language. Man moves in the city as a linguistic being. Now this linguist creature also needs timing. Waking up, going to work, sleeping, these are all tied together, creating something called Euclid's geometry. But in the new era, after Descartes, who believed in metric geometry, projective geometry has become important, which has a change of look to shapes, a kind of generative look. This view was favored by Spinoza and others, and eventually leads to a thermodynamic definition for Freud's triad.
Two books "Nine Articles of Cartesian Studies" and "Reflections" translated by Fereydoun Fazhele and introduction and foreword by Gholamreza Rahmani were published by Beshr Barsam.

It started with Hossein Zaman in the 1370s and continued in the following decades with Iftikhari, Esfahani, Vahid Taj and Hosamuddin Siraj, and in 1404 it reached "Jehan Setm" with the voice of Homayun Shajarian.

"The salvation of our civilization depends on the choice of degrowth. According to Saito, degrowth does not necessarily mean stagnation, decline and shrinking of the economy. In fact, the paradigm in which only economic growth is a priority, the growth that is accompanied by the unlimited production of luxury and useless goods, must be fundamentally changed. Marx thinks that the solution lies in repairing the metabolic gap between man and nature, that is, in "work".
Saeed Hamidian, professor of Persian language and literature at Allameh Tabatabai University (RA), said in the commemoration ceremony of Hafez Shirazi: Hafez research has been associated with valuable achievements in our time, but along with these studies, wrong perceptions and hasty interpretations have also spread about Hafez's poetry and thought, which should be addressed with a scientific and critical perspective.

Aref Masoudi said: Basically, the key point of Bragg's methodology, which is very attractive to me, is his critical stance against stereotyped, convenient and simplistic narratives. In a way, he is de-ideologising the philosophical field. In his narrative, Bragg is exactly in the middle of these two legends (the legend of the absolute dark age against the legend of the absolute golden age).

Mehrangiz Akhavi: Sometimes a good story, without directly talking about friendship, courage, acceptance of differences or responsibility, puts these concepts in the child's life. In my opinion, a story that prompts a child's mind to move after the end can have a deeper and more lasting impact than dozens of educational sentences.
