Abstract

BIALER, Marina. Voice in autism: an analysis based on autobiographies. Estilos clin. [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.2, pp.268-282. ISSN 1415-7128.  https://doi.org/10.11606/issn.1981-1624.v22i2p268-282.

In this paper, we analyse voice in autism based on the analysis of autobiographies written by autistics and their parents. For this purpose, we focus on manifestations such as mutism, guttural scream, monologue, the irruptive expression of sporadic words, echolalia, a private non-shared language, the use of intermediaries such as tape recorders, animal voice mimicry, Disney characters or books. After describing and signaling some importante aspects evidencied in this unique way of relating to the voice, we will point out some nuances of the psychic functioning of the autistic.

Keywords : autism; voice; psychoanalysis.
