This dissertation offers a Derridean reading of James Hillman's <italic> Re-Visioning Psychology</italic>. Its purpose is to answer the question: to what extent does Hillman's view of psyche succeed or fail in delivering a postmodern psychology? To answer this question our reading focuses on Hillman's treatment of metaphor as the guiding figure that anchors the form of his thought while disrupting the Cartesian foundation of modern scientific psychology. For Hillman psyche as metaphor is psychological insofar as “it says something and sees through what it says at the same time.” This structure is evident in the arrangement of the dissertation: chapter 1, “The Subject of Psychology,” reveals in what way Hillman's notion of “seeing through” overcomes the metaphysical limits of Cartesianism; chapter 2, “For the Love of Method,” looks at how archetypal psychology arrives at a more “objective” view of psyche by questioning the scientific pursuit of knowledge that would exclude love on methodological grounds for not being objective enough; and chapter 3, “The Ends of Metaphor: Image and Resistance,” explores Hillman's notion of metaphor in which “seeing through” the literal in itself allows us to see not only how the “psychological,” as metaphor, is concealed in the metaphysical, but also how the psychological must exceed the very presence of its metaphorical being, if it can be said to exist at all.

Its purpose is to answer the question: to what extent does Hillman's view of psyche succeed or fail in delivering a postmodern psychology? To answer this question our reading focuses on Hillman's treatment of metaphor as the guiding figure that anchors the form of his thought while disrupting the Cartesian foundation of modern scientific psychology. For Hillman psyche as metaphor is psychological insofar as “it says something and sees through what it says at the same time.” This structure is evident in the arrangement of the dissertation: chapter 1, “The Subject of Psychology,” reveals in what way Hillman's notion of “seeing through” overcomes the metaphysical limits of Cartesianism; chapter 2, “For the Love of Method,” looks at how archetypal psychology arrives at a more “objective” view of psyche by questioning the scientific pursuit of knowledge that would exclude love on methodological grounds for not being objective enough; and chapter 3, “The Ends of Metaphor: Image and Resistance,” explores Hillman's notion of metaphor in which “seeing through” the literal in itself allows us to see not only how the “psychological,” as metaphor, is concealed in the metaphysical, but also how the psychological must exceed the very presence of its metaphorical being, if it can be said to exist at all.
520 $a Despite a radical view of psyche as both soul and soul-making, Hillman fails to realize that the psychological resides in the self-critical work of psyche rather than the image itself. In the end Hillman's view of psyche arrives at an image of Hermes who resists taking the next critical step to acknowledge the presence of metaphor as being metaphysical in itself. While Hillman's archetypal psychology succeeds in being post-Cartesian, it ultimately fails to advance psychology into the postmodern episteme, remaining as a form of radical modernism.
