Robert Musil hat in "Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften" Essayismus doppelt bestimmt: als Form eines frei flottierenden Lebens und als Form eines seiner selbst bewussten Denkens.

Some essays augment traditional religious critiques of Freudianism with later religio-philosophical theories on, for example, femininity. Others explore the relation between psychopathology and morality from the Freudian premise that psychopathology shows in an excessive way aspects or mechanisms of the...
