Abstract
This papers deals with anticipation within a dynamically organised psychic system. We start with Freud's attempt to conceptualise such a system, in particular in his Project for a scientific psychology (1950a [1895]). Three subsystems are distinguished here : perception, memory and consciousness. They interact with each other and with the environment and are governed by the pleasure principle. The memory system forms the first important element in thinking the anticipatory capacity of the psychic system, the attention mechanism the second. With these two elements it will be shown how Freud can provide a basis for a dynamical approach of anticipatory systems wherein : the particular history of the interaction with the environment, its inscription in a memory system and, the development of an attention mechanism are important.
