On Methodology and Method in Acmeist Psychology

This article asks what kind of science psychology should be and what new readings of Vygotsky can contribute. The focus is on three major approaches to Vygotskys acmeist psychology: the objective-analytical method, the method of double stimulation, and the semic method. Each is discussed along with their interrelatedness. These possibilities lie in re-orienting psychology as a science that brings single cases and complex semiotic analyses to the fore and rethinks psychologys relation towards the arts, especially literature.
