IMG: Freud, Symbolism & Africa

From the previous post on Symbolism by Dr Umar Johnson, I found several pictures of of Freud's office, each clearly showing numerous African masks, dolls, and other artifacts.

Dr. Johnson describes the origin of Freud's subconscious theories as distinctly African, which he learned after visiting the continent.

VID: Thesis, antithesis, synthesis



Following a reference from 'How NWA Destroyed Hip Hop',


The triad thesis, antithesis, synthesis is often used to describe the thought of German philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. Hegel never used the term himself.
The triad is usually described in the following way:[by whom?]
  • The thesis is an intellectual proposition.
  • The antithesis is simply the negation of the thesis, a reaction to the proposition.
  • The synthesis solves the conflict between the thesis and antithesis by reconciling their common truths and forming a new thesis, starting the process over.
