Mental frame: your references and positions

Mental schools

The intellectual traditions you have passed through. Those still alive and those left behind.

A mental school is not an academic title: it's an intellectual tradition that at some point explained the world to you. Empiricism, phenomenology, Lacanian psychoanalysis, critical theory, Jesuit scholasticism, whatever. The question is not what you read — it's what shaped you. And especially what you left behind. The sequence matters: coming from Marxism and having passed through psychoanalysis is not the same as the reverse. The AI uses it to understand where you move, not to label you.
