Abstract
PRAT, Régine. The new style of interpretation.Translated byClaudia Berliner. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2014, vol.48, n.2, pp.33-46. ISSN 0486-641X.
The author examines the relevance of the distinction between interpretation and construction, specifically in child analysis. She suggests defining the statute of interpretation not by its form but by its effect on both the psychic apparatus and the analytic process. The form of interpretation will be considered as a tool for facilitating communication with the patient, constituting a specific vocabulary that corresponds to his level of symbolization. Clinical examples suggest, as channels of reflection, different modes of interpretation, from body language and the language of actions to that of role play, as well as working on the spaces and limits of identity, in particular with parents.
Keywords : actions; co-thought; interpretAction; role play; non-verbal language; work with parents; identity disorders; disturbances of symbolization.
