From the psychoanalytical point of view, it is a symptom of psychosis, as illustrated by the symptom of the existence of one word only to designate the lips and the tongue in antique Hebrew.

Nietzsche contra Freud on Bad Conscience

by Donovan Miyasaki

Even where they have been noted, the degree of these differences, which sometimes approaches direct opposition, has often been underestimated. In the following essay, I will suggest that on the topic of conscience Nietzsche and Freud have radically opposed views, with profoundly different moral consequences. Despite superficial similarities, Nietzsche’s conception of conscience is opposed to that of Freud in almost every conceivable way. For Freud, conscience is primarily associated with bad will, repression, subordination to social prohibition, and the feeling of guilt. For Nietzsche, conscience is primarily related to affirmation, memory, individual sovereignty, and the feelings of pride and power. To be sure, Freudian “bad conscience” has its parallel in Nietzsche’s philosophy—but only as a modality of conscience, not as its foundation. Freudian conscience is, on the contrary, an essentially bad conscience.

"Macbeth and the Political Uncanny in The Tenure of Kings and Magistrates"

In the tract, When Milton insists that the people may depose their king at will, and that in every way except physically, King Charles is already dead, he leaves the essential structure of sovereignty intact. Charles Stuart is demoted to the status of homo sacer--the paradigmatic figure of bare life abandoned by law who stands as the sovereign‘s doppelgänger--while the people are invested with sovereign power over life and death. Thus, the Tenure conjures the same specter of a dead king walking that it had sought to vanquish, and when eleventh-hour Presbyterian remorse threatens to revive Charles from symbolic death, Milton‘s outrage finds a paradigm in Macbeth‘s horror at the ghost of Banquo.
