Abstract

RICCI, Francesca. Territoriality: a shifting ground. J. psicanal. [online]. 2018, vol.51, n.95, pp. 245-258. ISSN 0103-5835.

This work weaves a reflection based on memories of emotional experiences with a patient. The author addresses the problem of getting in touch with psychic reality: the shifting of observation from the outside world to an internal world, in this case likely to be populated with frightening emotions. Starting from the assertion of Bion, whereby the observation of the psychic reality results in the modification of it, it is made the hypothesis that the possibility of the development of a mind would be associated with the perception of the same as an internal space capable of observation and knowledge. Factors that can influence the process are considered: frustration, intuition, knowledge, psychic work all implicated in the process of thinking.

Keywords : Bion; psychic reality; mental space; knowledge as emotion.
