Abstract

BRAGA, João Carlos. Bion's legacy: a new paradigm of thinking about psychoanalysis. J. psicanal. [online]. 2017, vol.50, n.92, pp. 180-193. ISSN 0103-5835.

This paper discusses how Bion's contributions in "Transformations" have changed our way of thinking about Psychoanalysis. It is still hard to evaluate the full scope of both Bion's theorizations and developments. However, they certainly are so deep that may be considered the rise of a new paradigm. "Paradigm" is used herein in the same sense that it was used by Kuhn to examine scientific revolutions. The author develops his ideas from the conjunction of both his clinical experience and the study of Bion's proposals.

Keywords : Bion; psychoanalytic theories; being or becoming the reality.
