Resumen

FERRAO, Laertes Moura. I saw a balloon in the sky!. J. psicanal. [online]. 2011, vol.44, n.81, pp.39-50. ISSN 0103-5835.

This text is a conference the author gave at the official inauguration of the Psychoanalytic Study Group of Recife. The author created a tale in which two boys observe the sky, one of them states that he had seen a balloon in the sky, and the other one states that he hadn’t seen it, so they begin to quarrel about their observations. One of the boys, due to operability of his unconscious mental processes, believes and affirms the superiority of his claims over the other. Arrogantly, he tries to prevent and destroy the other’s boy thinking ability by observing and experiencing. The second boy fights back and doesn’t allow himself to be invaded. According to the author, the boys grew up, and one of them could become Bacon or Descartes, the other could become Karl Popper. He comments on Bacon and Descartes optimistic epistemology and Popper’s epistemology. At the end of the conference he exposes his analytic practice with patients suffering from thought disorders. The author concludes that the problems of psychoanalytic experience with patients suffer from thinking disorders, cannot be understood without understanding the problems of the philosopher of science, and vice versa; and the problems of the philosopher of science cannot be understood without recurring to the help of psychoanalytic experience with patients suffer from thinking disorders.

Palabras clave : Epistemology; Psychoanalytic experience; Thinking disorders.
