Nas pegadas de Quíron, o curador ferido: manejo de teoria e técnica no campo transferencial à luz da teoria dos campos

Abstract

This work has the intention of questioning the terms in which the approach of the analyst-patient relationship is given, in psychoanalysis. The proposition is that is it possible for the analyst to listen to the patient and to be permitted to use sensibility as part of the technical heritage, without taking refuge in a previous theoretical framework to orient his or her listening. The Wounded Centaur serves the text as key-metaphor in this relationship, given that, according to this ancestral myth, the very disciple that had wounded Quiron/analyst (by imploding the supposed knowledge), is also the one who facilitated the cure (providing the insight that untangles the setting). Chapter I presents by means of a paradigmatic case-analysis situations that lead to the questioning of some common places of psychoanalytic theory. Chapter II introduces, in the light of the Multiple Fields Theory, the principal concepts with which to confront the impasses of clinical practice. Chapter III shows these concepts in action in the referred case-analysis, to reach a conclusion pertaining to the interaction between analyst (wounded healer) and patient (disciple that wounds). With that, it is hoped to demonstrate the viability of taking up again the prime Freudian posture, restoring patient and his or her discourse, at the center of the analysis
