SILVA, Sergio Gomes da  and  PEIXOTO JUNIOR, Carlos Augusto. Communicating theory in Donald W. Winnicott's clinical approuch. Cad. psicanal. [online]. 2017, vol.39, n.36, pp.65-83. ISSN 1413-6295.

This paper aims to analyze the main contributions of the English analyst and pediatrician Donald W. Winnicott on theory of communication in the maturational process. I discuss primarily the non-verbal communicating established between mother-infant pair and expressed through mirroring and subjectivity, to then discuss three forms of not-communicating: the simple not-communicating, related to peaceful states and not experienced integration the baby; the active not-communicating, expression of mental health and originally from maternal and child relationship, lived through gestures and expressions or the earliest forms of verbal language and, finally, the reactive not-communicating, essentially pathological and arising by environmental failures during the maturational process.

Keywords : Communicating; Not-communicatin; Theory of emotional development; Winnicott.
