TANIS, Bernardo. The infantile: its multiple aspects.Traduzido porClaudia Berliner. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2021, vol.55, n.1, pp. 63-83. ISSN 0486-641X.

This work aims at showing the extreme importance of the infantile for the psychoanalytical clinic and theory. The infantile may be grasped during the psychoanalytical experience as the princeps expression from psychic reality, from the unconscious of the human subjectivity. The infantile does not concern only children's analysts, as it is not connected to childhood or the development phases; which is different than childish behavior patterns. The infantile follows a casual predominance, non-linear, open to chance, to the doubtful. It is not about having a photographic memory about the past or an adult having childish behavior - the infantile shows what Freud called Erlebnis, "childish perception". The thesis is that, for the subject, the impact of these registrations, their metabolization and symbology, being possible or not, and their strength, is alive in the present, being the subject in a psychoanalytical clinic and not determining preferences for this or that theory-clinical model. The infantile does not emerge only as resistance or testimonial of repressed childhood sexuality, but also as current and vivid representation of the search for a creative and restorative (neogenesis) experience of what couldn't be experimented as the continuity of being, as expression of one's potential, as creative impulse that, due to inability or inadequacy of the primary object, had to be repressed or cleaved. Transforming the relation with the infantile does not mean eliminating it. It is about allowing a reorganization, redefinition, so that something new can arise from it. It can be source of disappointment or inspiration, but it will always be a reference.
