Summary/Abstract: The article briefly sets out the main points of Ricœur's reflection about Freudian psychoanalysis as a hermeneutics’ language (as a method rather than doctrine) that questions the foundation of human consciousness. Hermeneutics of suspicion Ricœur opposes, as dialectical complementary, to hermeneutics of meaning, and on conflict of these hermeneutics is built a narrative identity. While writing about the narrative identity, Ricœur was not expressly returning to Freud, the very concept becomes one of the instruments of psychoanalytic practice.
