Abstract

TRACHTENBERG, Renato. Walking against the wind or Edy and the disappeared from our Odysseys. Ide (São Paulo) [online]. 2022, vol.44, n.74, pp.37-58.  Epub Aug 02, 2024. ISSN 0101-3106.  https://doi.org/10.5935/0101-3106.v44n74.06.

The author, inspired by some of Bion’s ideas, tries to think about the complex psychoanalysis - present in this author’s work - using Homer’s Odyssey as a metaphor for a journey towards a complexity that expands more and more as this journey continues. The concepts of spectral model, caesuras and heterogeneous symmetries lead us to a critique of other models that are easily impregnated with morality, characteristic of a pre-complex psychoanalysis. The idea of a movement in at least two directions (↔), intrinsic to the caesura in a spectral model, questions the evolutionist/enlightenment ideal of conquering the fullness of knowledge. The inclusion of a third element, present in what the author calls a trilogy, presupposes logics different from the Aristotelian ones, such as the so-called bimodal, ternary, oedipal, paraconsistent logics etc. The latter will be described through trilogies that have correspondence and invariance relationships between them and that bring us closer to the well-known perplexing and complex question of Primo Levi: If This Is a Man.

Keywords : spectral model; caesuras; heterogeneous symmetries; trilogies; paradoxes.
