LOGOS ERGON. BETWEEN SCHIZOPHRENIA AND HERMENEUTICS

The book "Logos ergon. Between Schizophrenia and Hermeneutics" by Michał Gusin is a fascinating journey into the depths of the human psyche. The author analyzes the relationship between language and consciousness, showing the complexity and diversity of mental engagement in interactions with speech at the interface of the conscious and the unconscious. It is a read that encourages reflection on the condition of the human mind and its ability to interpret the world.

• Analysis of mental engagement in relationships with language
• Interface of consciousness and the unconscious
• Chance or illusion of therapy
• Dissociations characteristic of schizophrenia
• Possibility of healing through the power of hermeneutics
• Transformation of thinking into interpreted meanings
• Breaking with the rules of discourse

The author, by juxtaposing the autobiography of a person with delusional disorder with the figure of an outstanding mathematician of the 20th century, creates a unique perspective on the materialization of thinking in the form of meanings. This book, as the author writes in the introduction, is intended to mimic the distance of the Eleatic paradox, where space appears as discontinuous rather than chronological. It is an invitation to a littoral zone where a conceptual figure becomes a map.

Michał Gusin is a philosopher, historian of ideas and peculiarities, translator and employee of the Dolnośląska University in Wrocław and the Wyższa Szkoła Bankowa in Toruń. He has published in renowned journals such as Kronos, Praktyka Teoretyczna and Via Communicandi. He is the author of a monograph on Jacques Lacan's concept, as well as a translator of works by thinkers such as Gilles Deleuze, Jean-Luc Nancy, Félix Guattari and others.

The book "Logos ergon. Between Schizophrenia and Hermeneutics" is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, psychology and the history of ideas. It will allow for a new look at the relationships between language, consciousness and the unconscious, as well as the process of creating meanings. It is a read that stimulates thinking and encourages further research in the field of humanities.
