To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We thus find that the objections to the subconscious arc based on insufficient grounds. We also find that the Subconscious and the Passive Consciousness 197 abandonment of the subconscious leads to a tangle of difficulties and to the quagmire of mediaeval metaphys- ics. . If the metaphysical interpretation of the sub- conscious in the sense of a cosmic self lands one in the misty regions of religious mysticism, the opposite view of the total negation of the subconscious, apparently in the inter...ests of science, lands one in regions no less shadowy, regions of naturalistic mysticism. So fundamental, however, is the concept of the sub- conscious that even its opponents have to admit it under different names. They admit the fact of dissociation, of dissociated mental systems, and of dissociated person- alities. But they put forth the hypothetical claim that it is one and the same consciousness present in all the different forms of dissociation. Now, if we omit that speculative metaphysical consciousness which, being in- active and unchangeable, is of no use in scientific work, we are really left with the mutations and permutations of mental systems which, from their very nature, must be conscious.
