CHAVES, Anna Barreto Campello Carvalheira  e  QUEIROZ, Edilene Freire de. Jean’s turning point. Estud. psicanal. [online]. 2016, n.46, pp.33-43. ISSN 0100-3437.

The purpose of this article is to discuss psychoanalytical interventions that can be compared to turning points, a strategy employed in literary narratives. To illustrate this we will use the case of Jean, a four-year-old boy, who´s twin died shortly after birth and found himself subjected to specular double. The double appears as a destructive trace preventing the child’s individualization. According to Aristotle, such a point gives opportunity for the creation of a different encoding, generating changes in the direction and in the proper sense of the narrative. In Jean’s case, based on interventions conducted within a transference field, the psychoanalyst functions initially as a mirror, with emphasis on what is repeated, what characterizes the linearity of the narrative, but, at the same time, opens up possibilities for the emergence of a surprise element, initially considered an accessory, though becomes the fundamental element. The psychoanalyst’s position of operating initially as mirror and further emphasizing the element, brought as an accessory, allows a modification between figure and background of the clinical case, providing a metamorphosis in Jean’s body, a change in his gaze.

Palavras-chave : Specular double; Surprise element; Mirror; Body metamorphoses; Turning point.
