Declinazioni del rapporto psicologia-filosofia: Riflessi sull’insegnamento accademico nell’inchiesta di Enzo Bonaventura del 1914 (2015)

unapi

This article examines the relationship between psychology and philosophy, a complex issue that has for a long time affected the route towards the autonomy of the psychological disciplines. an issue that in Italy in particular has been the subject of intense debate, which lasted for several decades of the twentieth century. In this contribution a specific and rather unusual perspective has been chosen, that of the academic teaching of psychology, which in its subsequent transformations significantly reflected the developments in those debates. the specific object of the research reported here is a pioneering survey conducted in 1914 by Enzo Bonaventura on behalf of the association of psychological Studies, of florence, with the aim of knowing the teaching conditions of psychology in many foreign countries. following the detailed account of the author and proposing a series of comments, the article describes the situation both in the countries where at the time psychology took its first steps, and in those where its presence in the University was well established. an in-depth analysis is dedicated to the situation in Germany, where psychology is taught by chairs formally “entitled” to philosophy: a situation, this, that gives rise to controversies and contrasts, punctually and widely reported by Bonaventura. the article closes with the recovery of an intervention of vittorio Benussi regarding the “place” of psychology among the recognized sciences, thus further testifying how long the debate in Italy has continued on both the epistemological plane and on that of academic teaching.
