Abstract

BARONE, Leda Maria Codeço. A critique on the concept of unconscious from the perspective of the Multiple Fields Theory: implications for the psychoanalytical practice. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2014, vol.48, n.1, pp. 154-160. ISSN 0486-641X.

This work picks up on the critique of the concept of unconscious contained in the Multiple Fields Theory developed by Fabio Herrmann. According to Herrmann, the unconscious - when destitute of its ontological, material and unitary status - is a productive logic of representations. It does not exist, but it is there inasmuch as it is revealed by the interpretive method (the field rupture). Another idea pointed out by this critique of the unconscious is that the effect of this logical order that manifests itself in the symptom, in Freudian slips and in dreams is also present in the normal functioning. Fragments of the analysis of a child will be used to illustrate the implications of the concept in the clinical field.

Keywords : unconscious; productive logic; field rupture.
