LAMANNO-ADAMO, Vera L.C.. The clone: the torment of the same. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2010, vol.44, n.4, pp. 85-94. ISSN 0486-641X.

The author develops thoughts about cloning as a myth, in creation, which reveals interesting aspects of some patients. A myth which helps reflections about a specific type of relationship between the subject and the other, about his relationship with reality and about peculiar ways of thinking. The author uses the myth of the clone and some clinical experiences to discuss mental operations which help to understand those patients referred to in the psychoanalytical literature as devitalized, de-objectalized, of difficult access, borderline. Specificities of the transferencial and contratransferencial process with these patients are also discussed.
