Abstract

MACHADO JR, Péricles Pinheiro. The rupture of time in the experience of mourning: an apprenticeship. J. psicanal. [online]. 2018, vol.51, n.95, pp. 273-284. ISSN 0103-5835.

Taking from two particularly painful experiences of loss, the author devotes himself to a reflection on the impact of death on the way time is experienced during the work of mourning. This authorial, almost biographical, paper was written over long months interspersed by moments of silence and inspiration, whilst attempting to let memories of different natures come to form a network of affective connections that favoured continence, transformation and survival to the losses experienced. Theoretical passages from Freud and Klein on the work of mourning and the aesthetic experience of transience are summoned to dialogue with the author in an attempt to clarify the perception of time during the elaboration of affective losses. This work is dedicated to the memories of Paola Magnani and Pérsio Nogueira.

Keywords : mourning; time; emotional experience; transience.
