摘要：En este artículo sostenemos que Marshall McLuhan (1911-1980) pudo haber sido influido por Sigmund Freud. Ello debido a que, en primer lugar, McLuhan citó a Freud en varios de sus escritos. En segundo, a que ambos afirmaron luchar contra fuerzas invisibles –los efectos inadvertidos de los medios para McLuhan y las memorias reprimidas y el inconsciente para Freud-. Además en este texto mostramos interesantes paralelismos entre estos dos revolucionarios pensadores, quienes exploraron el funcionamiento de la psique humana desde dos perspectivas completamente diferentes, sin embargo, de cierto modo complementarias.
其他摘要：In this paper we examine the thesis that Sigmund Freud might have had a possible influence on the thinking of Marshall McLuhan. We also develop the parallels in their thinking. The first hint of this connection is that McLuhan frequently refers to Freud in his writings. The second hint is that both men were battling invisible forces - unnoticed effects of media for McLuhan and repressed memories and the unconscious for Freud. We present this hypothesis as a probe, which we believe has some degree of truth to it given the frequency with which McLuhan referred to and quoted Freud. Even if it is not true it is still illuminating to see the parallels of these two revolutionary thinkers who explored the workings of the human psyche from two completely different perspectives.
