Abstract

AZEVEDO, Berta Hoffmann. Malaise and creativity in the contemporary practice: the analyst's psychic work. J. psicanal. [online]. 2017, vol.50, n.93, pp. 175-190. ISSN 0103-5835.

This paper is a study of malaise in the contemporary practice. The author writes about the malaise that emerges from being in touch with states that limit both the analysability and the use of classic frame - a classic frame that Freud intuitively established by following the model of The Interpretation of Dreams. The author finds in Andre Green's work the tools for understanding the problems of the representative process within the frame. She identifies, especially in Green's and Winnicott's work, the clues to think of the analyst's creativity and psychic work as being ways of extending the clinic field to these (representative) processes. The author stresses the necessity of searching for the access to borderline patients. She brings some analyst's ways of being present that may improve the work of representation under these conditions. In this paper, the author points out Freudian conceptions in the Project for a Scientific Psychology. She relates Green to Pontalis as contemporary authors who recognize, in the experience of pain and in the failure to experience satisfaction, the origin of what happens with borderline cases in the clinical practice.

Keywords : limit; pain; experience of satisfaction; malaise; Green.
