Resumo

KACELNIK, Joyce. In what language did Oedipus talk to the Sphinx?. Ide (São Paulo) [online]. 2008, vol.31, n.47, pp. 98-104. ISSN 0101-3106.

The author intends to demonstrate that foreign languages as a theme in psychoanalysis has been neglected, based on personal experience and research of the history of psychoanalysis. Such situation might have occurred due to some resistance to “foreign’, “strange” aspects - Freud’s Unheimlich. The first hypothesis was that analysis performed in a foreign language would be at fault when compared to analysis in which the analytic pair has the same mother tongue. The author disconstructs this idea by clarifying that differences are not impeditive for a truly creative analytic experience.

Palavras-chave : Foreign language; Mother tongue; Psychoanalysis.
