from the Pre-Conscious to the Neo-Conscious


Explanation:
Here what are usually adjectives "conscient" and "inconscient" are used as nouns. The same is done in English at times. Here is an example:

"Between the conscious and the unconscious, the mind has put up
a swing:
all earth creatures, even the supernovas, sway between these
two trees,
and it never winds down."

The word "unconsciousness" would have been "inconscience" and "consciousness" would have been "conscience" in French.
