Abstract
KLAUTAU, Perla; FERREIRA, Fernanda Pacheco and SOUZA, Octavio. From the limits of what is interpretable towards a valorization of what can be experienced in psychoanalytical clinic. Psyche (Sao Paulo) [online]. 2008, vol.12, n.22, pp.55-66. ISSN 1415-1138.
Ferenczi was a pioneer in questioning the limits of interpretation and proposing possible solutions, often controversial, to his patients sufferings. We believe this author had a significant and ample influence for the development of Object Relations theory, and more specifically on those psychoanalysts that formed the so called Middle Group, such as Balint and Winnicott. There is, in the theory of these Ferenczis heirs, a greater appreciation of both the pre-reflexive and the pre-symbolic spheres of experience. This widening of the psychoanalytical field allowed a great attention on the inclusion of the so-called case-limits or, as the Lacanian psychoanalysts call, the non-classifiable cases, better saying, cases not liable to be included in the structural clinic model. Thus, we raise the question as to how close the last developments of Lacans teaching approach the clinical sensitiveness of Ferenczis heirs, in spite of the long length of time elapsed since these authors faced these questions.
