In opposition to Freudo-Marxist theories, the author of the present essay argues the incompatibility of psychoanalytical and Marxist views on conditio humana. He elucidates his position with the help of aesthetical categories.
The main thesis is that psychoanalytical theory possesses an inherent tragic vision of the conditio humana, whereas for Marxist theories the tragic vision is disagreeable, even in the so-called 'ideological theatre', of which the best examples are Bertolt Brecht's dramas.
