| Sumario: | In this work, we reflect on the politics of the unconscious from the peculiar interpretation of dreams proposed by Charlotte Beradt in The Third Reich of Dreams. The dream stories that this work brings together allow us to highlight and explore the truth value of dreams as an attribute that goes beyond the sphere of intimacy, placing de-sire and anguish on a historical and collective horizon. Along this path, we analyze Berad-tian hermeneutics in the light of philosophical and psychoanalytic concepts that underline the inexhaustible ambiguity of the unconscious, in which submission and freedom, trau-ma and its elaboration coexist. We stop at the political dimensions of the feeling of guilt, which is shown in certain dreams not only as the intimate destiny of the collective, but also as the political impulse in the apparently personal. Appealing to cultural history, we put dreams into perspective as testimonies of an era from which they are the result and, conversely, to finish, we recall an interpretation of Moses and monotheistic religion that leads us to ask, with Freud, if sometimes history is not the daughter of a (bad) dream. |
