AZEVEDO, Berta Hoffmann. Passion and madness at the limits of psychoanalytic practice. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2024, vol.58, n.3, pp.85-96.  Epub 28-Mar-2025. ISSN 0486-641X.  https://doi.org/10.69904/0486-641x.v58n3.07.

The author explores the connections between passion and madness, highlighting their link to the primordial experience of indiscrimination and overflow that touches both. Additionally, she points to the effects of strategies for conjuring these experiences in the borderline clinic. Drawing from the clinical experience of passionate transference triggered by the disorganizing effect of romantic passion, she utilizes contributions from Freud, André Green, Piera Aulagnier, Joyce McDougall, and J.-B. Pontalis, and integrates these with the literary works Simple passion, by Annie Ernaux, and Bartleby, by Herman Melville.

Palavras-chave : passion; madness; work of the negative.
