Abstract
It is not easy to talk about and make people understand what the meaning of attention is, which is often confused with concentration, with observation, or it can even be absorbed into other conceptuali-zations or forms of experience. In depth psychology, Sigmund Freud tells us that to favor the unconscious the analyst must try to enter a state of fluctuating attention. Carl Gustav Jung often warns us to pay attention because what we experience is “simultaneously” conscious and unconscious. This, later, led to the possibility of experiencing multiple non-linear and consequential but synchronic worlds in one space-time (also thanks to the theory of synchronicity, developed through a dialogue with the physicist Wolfgang Pauli). In this context, especially after the daring openings and hypoth-eses from the latest quantum physics, the concept of reality changes and requires, in order to make sense, a great deal of attention.File | Size | Format | |
