Soviet-Wordsworthian Freudian theories
Right here's the theory:
The Prelude indicates that self-awareness and the rise of the ego occurs after the break of "sexual awakening" and divides the innocence of "self" into the conscious and unconscious.
If we apply this to Soviet history, the unconscious coalesced self mirrors Tsarism (consciousness = Socialist awareness also) the Revolution would refled the "sexual awakening" and the loss of innocence and fight to establish a sense of Communist Selfhood. The post revolutionary period and Stlainism onwards would thus constitute a fully socially and therefore conscious awareness of self. The sense of I am mirrors this process, but is a more frequent cyclical process (another post -mind hurts). Essentially therefore, in Socialist eyes, the sense of a Soviet self, and a Soviet self centred in the state, is equivalent of the conscious self - and perhaps any lingering but unutterable doubts towards the system may represent the relics of the unconscious id? Who knows!
