MALEVAL, Jean-Claude. About retained alienation in the autist. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.72, n.1, pp.8-24. ISSN 1809-5267.  https://doi.org/10.36482/1809-5267.ARBP2020v72i2p.8-24.

The paper discusses the relationship of the autist with language from the theoretical standpoint of Lacanian-oriented psychoanalysis. The authors question: "Could a human being not be affected by language?". The study challenges the current position on the presence of signified alienation in the autist and considers the hypothesis of a partial alienation. It also deepens the reflection on the topic based on the extensive specialized literature, clinical data, and autobiographical quotes. The paper affirms, based on empirical data from researches on babble of autistic children that the autist does suffer the impact of "lalangue". The writing shows the escape of the eye gaze, observed during the first months of life of the autistic child, as an indicator of the parasitic effect of language. For this purpose, the paper distinguishes affection from distress, something typical of humans, from emotion, typical of animals. Finally, the article explains the specificity of the signified alienation in the autist linking it to the retention of the voice, which blocks the operationality of the master-signifier.

Palavras-chave : autism; psychoanalysis; alienation.
