A Literatura Na Construção Da Linguagem Do Analista1
JORNAL de PSICANÁLISE 51(95), 259-272. 2018 A literatura na construção da linguagem do analista1 Maria Luiza Salomão,2 São Paulo Resumo: Ao refletir sobre a construção da linguagem analítica, tomo o conceito de Ferro (2008), que vê nos relatos do paciente uma narrativa: enfatiza a escuta do como o paciente narra, e não o conteúdo propriamente dito (sintomas). Reflito sobre como Freud, em seus historiais clínicos, concede-se liberdade para criar uma narrativa sobre seus pacientes, criando conceitos iluminadores da prática psicanalítica. Dou como exemplo o conceito de cena primária, presente em seu trabalho com o paciente russo Sergei Pankejeff (Freud, 1918/2010), o Homem dos Lobos, que rejeita ter tido a experiência descrita por Freud, dizendo ser uma invenção do pai da psicanálise. Freud, ao comunicar suas descobertas, constrói, audaz, uma linguagem e um léxico, que permite ao leitor um desdobramento fértil de ideias e de percepções. Ao transmitir sua experiência analítica, não cuida de seguir literalmente o relato do paciente, mas cria uma narrativa que permite ir além do vivido na dupla, construindo conceitos com base em sua potência investigativa e imaginativa. Considero, neste texto, a leitura de textos psicanalíticos como experiências emocionais, semelhantes às leituras que faço de poesias e de prosas literárias. Reflito brevemente sobre as vicissitudes que os analistas enfrentam na transmissão de suas experiências clínicas nos encontros entre pares; assim como na interferência da personalidade do analista na experiência e no relato da experiência da dupla analítica. Palavras-chave: narrativa psicanalítica, construção da linguagem psicanalítica, leituras psicanalíticas Leio a literatura psicanalítica como leio poesia e escrita literária. -

Pre-Phobic Anxiety *
Pre-phobic Anxiety * “My dear Professor, I am sending you a little more about Hans-but this time, I am sorry to say, material for a case history.”1The boy woke up one morning in tears; asked why he was crying, he said to his mother: “When I was asleep I thought you were gone and I had no Mummy to coax with” [The child’s word for caress. It is therefore,] “An anxiety dream.”2 In 1909 the publication of the case-history “caused a great stir and even greater indignation”. Would the findings of a psychoanalysis of a suffering child meet with the same agitations and scorn as Freud’s case history of the analysis and recovery of Little Hans? Or, can we learn from it and find hope? It’s my hope that this paper, rather than giving a chronological account, can remind us of the mental activities driving the anxious and fearful child before calling up the intervention of his phobic object. Freud writes: We must regard [this dream] as a genuine punishment and repression dream and, moreover, as a dream which failed in its function, since the child woke from his sleep in a state of anxiety. We can easily reconstruct what actually occurred in the unconscious3. Thanks to Freud’s monumental gift we remember that “The Interpretation of dreams is the royal road to a knowledge of the unconscious activities of the mind”.4 As the most common victims of anxiety dreams are children5 how are we to understand Hans’s distress given that Freud asserts “Children’s dreams prove beyond a doubt that a wish that has not been dealt with during the day can act as dream -
FREUD and the PROBLEM with MUSIC: a HISTORY of LISTENING at the MOMENT of PSYCHOANALYSIS a Dissertation Presented to the Faculty
FREUD AND THE PROBLEM WITH MUSIC: A HISTORY OF LISTENING AT THE MOMENT OF PSYCHOANALYSIS A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Michelle R. Duncan May 2013 © 2013 Michelle R. Duncan FREUD AND THE PROBLEM OF MUSIC: A HISTORY OF LISTENING AT THE MOMENT OF PSYCHOANALYSIS Michelle R. Duncan, Ph. D. Cornell University 2013 An analysis of voice in performance and literary theory reveals a paradox: while voice is generally thought of as the vehicle through which one expresses individual subjectivity, in theoretical discourse it operates as a placeholder for superimposed content, a storage container for acquired material that can render the subjective voice silent and ineffectual. In grammatical terms, voice expresses the desire or anxiety of the third rather than first person, and as such can be constitutive of both identity and alterity. In historical discourse, music operates similarly, absorbing and expressing cultural excess. One historical instance of this paradox can be seen in the case of Sigmund Freud, whose infamous trouble with music has less to do with aesthetic properties of the musical art form than with cultural anxieties surrounding him, in which music becomes a trope for differences feared to potentially “haunt” the public sphere. As a cultural trope, music gets mixed up in a highly charged dialectic between theatricality and anti-theatricality that emerges at the Viennese fin- de-Siècle, a dialectic that continues to shape both German historiography and the construction of modernity in contemporary scholarship. -

Freud's Wissbegierde and the Research Projects of Childhood
Sitegeist 10: 92–111 (2015) Freud’s Wissbegierde and the Research Projects of Childhood: Revisiting ‘Little Hans’ Julie Walsh I overheard an exchange between two women on a coach recently, both of whom were grandmothers. One was telling the other of her grandchild’s musings on the imminent arrival of a baby sibling. The young child grew particularly concerned if her mother went to the toilet lest the baby arrive without warning. The second grandmother had similar anecdotes to recount. As delighted as they were by the creative and candid character of their progeny, they were also compelled to formulate their own imaginative identifications with the (now distant) site of childhood. Recognising that the infants’ theories were ‘perfectly reasonable’ and in actual fact ‘rather clever’, and speculating on the nature of the infants’ experiential realities, the grandmothers were framing their own desire to know something of their grandchildren’s investigative spirit within a discourse of hypothesis and logical conjecture. I mention this to illustrate how, on embarking on his most formative of investigations, the infant inevitably re-ignites the epistemophilic instincts of the adult onlooker. Perhaps this is as straightforward as observing that wonder begets wonder, but what I will try to show is that this formulation is itself a significant derivation of Freud’s thought that narcissism begets narcissism.1 What strikes me most however, about this conversation that I was privy to, is the way in which a rudimentary (but etymologically correct) appreciation of research as that which entails care in the act of looking comes close to capturing the qualities of affection, inspiration, and diligent attention that the grandmothers were demonstrating in their analyses of their grandchildren.2 The central line of enquiry in this paper asks how care and research come to coalesce in the activity of psychoanalysis. -

The Vagaries of Psychoanalytic Interpretation
The Vagaries of Psychoanalytic Interpretation: An Investigation into the Causes of the Consensus Problem in Psychoanalysis (Authors version of a paper published in Philosophia 42 (3), pp. 779-799.) Kevin Lynch Abstract Though the psychoanalytic method of interpretation is seen by psychoanalysts as a reliable scientific tool for investigating the unconscious mind, its reputation has long been marred by what’s known as the consensus problem: where different analysts fail to reach agreement when they interpret the same phenomena. This has long been thought, by both practitioners and observers of psychoanalysis, to undermine its claims to scientific status. The causes of this problem, however, are dimly understood. In this paper I attempt to illuminate one important cause of the consensus problem by investigating the role which reliance on ‘associative evidence’ has in generating consensus failures. Various options for overcoming the difficulties with this form of clinical evidence are then examined. It is argued that these problems can be mitigated by the notion of overall associative fit, though they are exacerbated by certain loose standards used for what counts as acceptable associative evidence. The possibility of using more rigorous standards is discussed. 1. Introduction Freud’s psychoanalytic method of interpretation (PMI), in contrast to specific Freudian theories, is often hailed as the most significant and enduring of his legacies (e.g., Lothane 1998, p. 62). With the PMI, Freud supposedly gave us something more valuable than a set of doctrines, namely, the means for deciphering a wide variety of puzzling human phenomena to ascertain the ‘hidden meanings’ supposedly encoded in them, including neurotic and hysterical symptoms, dreams, and even cultural products like religions and art-works (all of which may be called ‘neurotic symptoms’ in an extended sense).
