Música y psicoanálisis / Music and psychoanalysis

El presente artículo propone algunas relaciones entre música y psicoanálisis. A partir de interrogaciones clínicas que han llevado a buscar respuestas en la música, el autor se permite salir del puro contexto transferencial para explorar algunos momentos de la historia del movimiento psicoanalítico en los que la música ha jugado un rol importante cuando se busca transmitir una noción, y también respecto de la escritura del psicoanálisis y la construcción de hipótesis clínicas por parte del psicoanalista. En terreno clínico en el que el autor desarrolla su reflexión, el "psicoanálisis en situaciones extremas", resulta especialmente necesaria la elaboración de una posición de respuesta al vacío o a través de la negatividad y la música resulta a veces un campo privilegiado en la construcción de un espacio metafórico capaz de figurar la gran ambigüedad y la discordancia que caracterizan, en términos pulsionales, los encuentros con estos pacientes y que permiten el acceso a un terreno de encuentro en el que la palabra puede renacer

This article explores some possible relations between music and psychoanalysis. The author develops his reflection in the clinical field of "extreme situations", in which it is often necessary to develop a response to emptiness. Music is a privileged field in the construction of a metaphorical space capable of figuring out the great ambiguity that characterize the encounters with these patients, creating a ground in which the language can be reborn and deploy. Based on these clinical interrogations that have led the author beyond the psychoanalytical theory, the role of music in the history of the psychoanalytic movement is also explored, as well as in the writing of the case and in the construction of clinical hypotheses, in the transfer situation, by the psychoanalyst

Transsexualism and transgenderism: Unravelling sex and gender, and abstractions of the sexed body.

Although transgenderism is accorded an increasingly important place at the heart of studies concerning problems of gender nonconformity, it remains a phenomenon that is poorly known, and difficult to define, in particular in its relationship with transsexualism. In fact, in spite of an undeniable kinship between them, these two phenomena can be distinguished one from the other, and each represents a way of relating to the subject of the difference between the sexes. To clarify this subject, this article initially presents their emergence, their commonalities and their differences from a historical point of view. Next, both ways of relating to the difference between the sexes are analysed through two clinical case studies, one of transsexualism and one of transgenderism (from extracts of non-directive clinical interviews, as well as data from the Rorschach test and the Thematic Apperception Test [TAT], analysed by the French psychoanalytic method). At the end of this investigation, it is concluded that the distinction between these two phenomena refers to two abstractions of the difference between the sexes, leading to a transformation that can be pictured as a fulfilment driven by this perception.

Objetivo Intentamos establecer las hipótesis de trabajo del analista confrontado a la irrupción del cuerpo en la cura y que permiten elaborar transferencialmente la violencia pulsional. Procedimientos La experiencia clínica de los autores con un niño establece las bases teóricas que interrogan el rol del cuerpo. Este es luego analizado transferencialmente en tres situaciones clínicas. Conclusiones La presencia actual del analista es articulada respecto de su deseo. El cuerpo del analista permite actualizar, en la transferencia, el desplazamiento entre el registro yoico imaginario y el registro simbólico en el que emerge el sujeto.

Objetivo Estabelecemos hipóteses relativas ao trabalho do analista que enfrenta a irrupção do corpo no tratamento que permitem elaborar na transferência a violência da pulsão. Procedimentos A experiência clínica dos autores com uma criança pequena constitui a base teórica a partir da qual o papel do corpo é questionado. As atualizações do corpo no tratamento são então analisadas em sua relação à transferência em 3 três situações clínicas. Conclusões A presença atual do analista é articulada ao seu desejo. O corpo do analista abre à atualização, na transferência, do deslocamento entre o Eu imaginário e Eu simbólico no qual surge o sujeito.

Purpose We establish hypotheses referring to the work of psychoanalysts’ who are confronted by the drive violence that characterizes the sudden emergence of the body within de psychoanalytical setting. Procedures The clinical experience of the authors with a small child provides the theoretical basis for analysis of the role of the body. Three different clinical situations are then transferentially analyzed. Conclusions The presence of the psychoanalyst is linked to his desire. The body of the psychoanalyst allows is open to actualization, in transference, of displacement from an imaginary Self towards a symbolic Self in which the subject emerges.

Objectif Nous établissons des hypothèses sur le travail de l’analyste confronté à l’irruption du corps dans le traitement lui permettant d’élaborer transférentiellement la violence pulsionnelle. Procédure L’expérience clinique des auteurs avec un enfant en bas âge a permis d’établir les bases théoriques à partir desquelles le rôle du corps est interrogé. Les actualisations du corps dans le traitement sont ensuite illustrées à travers trois situations cliniques. Conclusions La présence actuelle de l’analyste est référée à son désir. Le corps de l’analyste ouvre à l’actualisation, dans le transfert, du déplacement du moi en je, puis du je vers un moi unifié.

Ziel Es sollen Arbeitshypothesen für die Arbeit des Analytikers formuliert werden, der mit der plötzlichen Manifestation des Körpers während der Heilung konfrontiert wird, wobei die Triebgewalt in der Übertragung erarbeitet werden kann. Vorgehen Basierend auf der klinischen Erfahrung der Autoren mit einem Kleinkind werden theoretische Grundlagen entwickelt, um die Rolle des Körpers zu erläutern. Die Aktualisierungen des Körpers während der Heilung werden dann anhand dreier klinischer Situationen illustriert. Schlussfolgerungen Die aktuelle Präsenz des Analytikers ist mit seinem eigenen Begehren verbunden. Der Körper des Analytikers ermöglicht die Aktualisierung, in der Übertragung, der Verschiebung von einem imaginären Ich hin zu einem symbolischen Ich, was zur Manifestation des Subjekts führt.

Imaginary Transitions and Transformation in Psychoanalytic Work.

This article explores the transformations that occur in analytic work from methodological, topographical, and dynamic perspectives, with a particular emphasis on the concept of imaginary transition. Through a theoretical exploration and the presentation of clinical material from five cases, the authors show how the process of working-through emerges in treatment as a result of the changes of rhythm, register, images, phenomena of upheaval, and the numerous displacements that are brought about in and through transference. Events are only markers or clues about a transformation that takes place over the long term.

Situações extremas e figuras do informe / Extreme situations and figures of the shapeless

Através do deciframento de três sessões de psicoterapia analitica do início do tratamento de um paciente sofrendo de AIDS, o autor se propõe a mostrar de que modo, diante do universo fragmentário apresentado pelo sujeito em situação extrema, quer dizer, no temor do desenvolvimento de um fenômeno interno que o aproxima da morte, o psicanalista é levado a deixar se construir nele mesmo uma espécie de mundo virtual que desafia a realidade. Sob a forma de metáforas, de 'figuras de imagens' que permitem a instalação do quadro da cura, a instauração de uma relação de troca e a progressão do trabalho analítico tornam-se possíveis. Este último é tomado tanto do ponto de vista das representações que estão em jogo quanto ao nível dos movimentos afetivos 'transfero-contra-tranferencial' (AU)
