Abstract

VIOLA, Carolina Gubert  and  FLEIG, Mario. In other’s mouth: the laugh in the psychosis. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2009, vol.9, n.3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1808-4281.

The laugh since Freud figures as an odd manifestation of the unconscious. The psychosis, in Lacan, acquires a special place in the thought and in the clinical psychoanalytical. As in psychoanalysis the theory comes from the clinical, the present paper also is a resulting of the surprises of clinical experiences. What happens when the laugh emerges in subjects structured in the psychosis? Among the different forms of provoking the laugh, this present paper will give priority to the comic in its relation to the fall of the significant phallus, which seems to fulminate the psychotic subject. The ethical statute indispensable to the psychoanalysis occurs in the analytical act as a possibility for the subject to be heard: would it be the laugh a possible fall of the voice as object? If so the voice in the laugh could be understood as communication?

Keywords : Laugh; Psychosis; Sideration; Voice.
