Abstract
Long before disputes about Cartesian and post-Cartesian subjectivity, Greco-Roman philosophy—more a way of life than a set of theories—taught and exemplified a central value on care of the soul. The ancients understood this soul primarily as an ethical voice: organizing, orienting and limiting. This contribution suggests that the selfhood sought by psychoanalytic self psychology may resemble this ancient orientation to the good more than it does the Cartesian or post-Cartesian “subjectivities” of more recent philosophizing.
