Abstract

VILLAR, Fabio C. C. E.. Hermes in the fields of Apolo: Deidealization and eccentricity in neurodivergent pattern. Junguiana [online]. 2022, vol.40, n.3, pp. 119-132. ISSN 2595-1297.

The article presents the beginning of an investigation about neurodiversity, specifically about certain aspects of the arrival of a neurodivergent child in a family, and it seeks to raise experiential reflections about neurodiversity in the world, homes, schools, and medical offices. This investigation starts from both personal and clinical experiences to elaborate, under an archetypal lens, relationships between the imagination of the trickster and two psychic phenomena present in the occurrence of neurodivergence in a family: deidealization and eccentricity.

Keywords : neurodiversity; trickster; fatherhood; deidealization; analytical psychology.
