Abstract
The fundamental contribution of Buber to the existential phenomenology is to attribute to the principle words I-Thou and I-It, by means of the intentionality of consciousness, a decisive role in the dialogue and in the encounter. This occurs by the presentification and detachment of the ones involved in the debate. These words were fundamental to explain the intersubjectivites relations and with the world, relations which are essential to clarify the discourse that comes from philosophy and science. We try to present a deeply concern about the distinction between the Buber’s principle words and its repercussion in the relation therapist - patient in the psychological and medical clinics. Moreover, we will touch the dialog that Buber sustained with Freud and Jung. With the first, it is noticeable the inception of the meaning of historicity in the construction of life to refuse a notion of culture as an Oedipus projection. Buber refuse too, with the second, to reduce the dialogue with the sacred to a psychic function.
