Existe una posición privilegiada para analizar la relación posible entre la filosofía y el psicoanálisis, y esta es a través de la hermenéutica. No solo Ricoeur, multitud de autores, a uno y otro lado de la disputa, han expresado sus posturas acerca de qué comparten y qué distinguen al psicoanálisis y a la hermenéutica filosófica, que quiere servir de vehículo para comprender la esencia interpretante del ser humano. Debido a ello, autores como Heidegger y Gadamer se han visto llamados a expresar sus posiciones acerca del saber del inconsciente, para evaluar el modo de poner en contacto la esencia del psicoanálisis como talking cure y la referencia interna de la filosofía como diálogo.
