A linguagem das resistências: Considerações sobre o trauma na dínica psicanalítica

Abstract

It is intended to discuss the persistence of traumatic dimension in contemporary psychoanalytic clinics in the light of the theme of language. Narratives resulting from a traumatic shock are predominantly marked by literalness, consisting of intense words and splited by chains of representations. It is a distinct feature of metaphorical construction that characterized the classical neuroses, psychic modalities of suffering that advocated interpretative technique at the time of the emergence of psychoanalysis. It is suggested that these narratives enlighten resistances' language, calling the analyst to extrapolate the current attitude of suspicion in the interpretative technique in order to build confidence.
