The candidature of Eric Zemmour, a far-right polemicist journalist, in the 2022 presidential election has aroused the indignation and amazement of political leaders of all stripes. The polemicist held on December 5, 2021 in Villepinte his first major meeting since his announcement, where he tried to restore his image and present an ethos of the ideal leader. The purpose of this article is to analyze the images that Zemmour broadcasts of himself during the meeting as well as the different strategies he uses to convey an ethos favorable to his person. It is a question of determining the different constructions that the candidate makes of his own image. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Fear and hatred are affections inherent to human nature; they are not exclusive to the current historical moment but have worsened in recent decades. According to Zygmunt Bauman (2016), "fear and hatred have the same origin and feed on the same thing". Such a statement is an excuse to inquire -through the analytical discourse and by following the Freudian indication- as to what it is feasible to say about the relationship between fear and hatred in the current reality: applying psychoanalytic premises to other practices and fields of knowledge allows us both to raise new problems and to glimpse in a different light those already conceived. This indication invites us to think with the psychoanalytic doctrine, in this case, the discourse of fear and hatred, more than just denouncing it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Taken from interviews with men having been incarcerated on the charge of criminal association with the intent of committing or aiding and abetting to terrorist acts, the central question of this article has thus emerged: which part does Islamist radicalization play on the psychic level of the self? Therefore, we have selected several theorical concepts, to guide us in this research, that became operative concepts, such as hatred, drive, melancholy and symptom. These have a converging point that is linked with the clinic of boredom and emptiness, or named otherwise, "off language". The radicalization process seems to come as a way to fill this emptiness, and hence to avoid the risk of the collapsing of the self. However, this "solution" is only a lure, leading to destruction, while at the same time, the person is aiming to restore its identity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Il s'agit d'une approche conceptuelle de la notion de Passion, de son évolution au cours du temps ; la méthodologie repose sur l'analyse des textes princeps et la recherche de termes et de thèmes qui perdurent dans la pensée contemporaine et peuvent éclairer les radicalisations liées au terrorisme. L'auteur analyse l'apparition du lien entre passion et folie à partir des philosophes antiques et la persistance du rapport à la raison de sous-catégories des passions comme la haine et les radicalités. D'abord centré sur l'individu, on assiste à l'extension de son usage vers le groupe avec la notion de passion sociale. État affectif dominant la vie de l'esprit d'un individu, la passion est par la suite analysée successivement comme subordonnée à la raison et susceptible de devenir une forme de folie chez les Stoïciens. Le pouvoir théologico-politique les fera considérer comme des attitudes d'incapacité et d'insoumission à la loi divine. Considéré d'abord comme une opinion, le passage au courant médical et aliéniste amène la caractérisation d'entités nosographiques avant que ne soient soulignés le contexte particulier des pensées radicales et le questionnement des radicalités religieuses et philosophiques. Les analyses des médecins et aliénistes reflèteront les conceptions de leur temps, mais se dégageront progressivement du contexte religieux. Le rapport au rationnel et au vrai sera restauré dans l'analyse des délires au XIXe siècle. L'analyse des pensées radicales et des radicalités sera plus tardive et inclura le passage des passions individuelles aux passions collectives et aux passions sociales. It is a conceptual approach to the notion of passion, its evolution over time. The methodology is based on the analysis of original texts and the search for terms and themes that persist in contemporary thought. The author analyses the appearance of the link between passion and madness since ancient philosophers and the persistence of the relationship to reason and subcategories of passions, such as hatred and can inform terrorism-related radicalizations. The author analyses the appearance of the link between passion and madness from ancient philosophers and the persistence of the relationship to the reason of subcategories of passions such as hatred and radicalities. Initially focused on the individual, we see the extension of its use towards the group with the notion of social passion. An affective state dominating the life of an individual's mind, passion is subsequently analyzed successively as subordinate to reason and likely to become a form of madness among the Stoics. The theological–political power will cause them to be regarded as attitudes of incapacity and disobedience to the divine law. Viewed first as an opinion, the passage to the medical and alienist current leads to the characterization of nosographic entity before the particular context of radical thoughts and the questioning of religious and philosophical radicalities is emphasized. The analyses of doctors and alienists will reflect the conceptions of their time but will gradually emerge from the religious context. The relation to the rational and the true will be restored in the analysis of the delusions in the 19th century. The analysis of radical thoughts and radicalities will be late and will include the passage from individual passions to collective passions and social passions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

'Hate stereotyping' occurs when researchers foreground negative emotions, especially hate, as motivating right-wing social movements, epitomized by labels like 'hate group'. This convention contradicts empirical evidence showing that hateful feelings and ideological prejudices are mostly insignificant for attracting and retaining members in such movements. Using contemporary theories of hate, this article demonstrates the concept's limits and misuse in studying and theorizing the political Right. For instance, hate's theoretical and methodological ambiguity sometimes leads scholars to confuse hatred with right-wing ideology and prejudice, which can obfuscate findings and spur dubious generalizations across political groups. Moreover, some researchers accept post-structuralist theories of hate as a substitute for vital data on emotions, motivations and meaning-making among right-wing actors. Hate explanations persist because they appeal to 'common sense' about intolerance, not because of their methodological integrity for studying right-wing movements. By foregrounding intolerance, hate stereotyping risks sustaining the dominant narrative that prejudices such as racism are deviant, and that racism is a problem of bad attitudes and fringe ideologies, rather than larger issues of systemic and structural inequality.

This article aims to show how aggressiveness was taken into account by psychoanalysis from the first Freudian essays to Lacan's reinterpretation, which, starting from aggressiveness of the subject directed to a similar other, evolves to the concept of hatred of the Other. In this regard, we emphasize the last stage of Lacan's teaching, which highlights the concept of Real, crucial to understand the inception of hatred in the subjective constitution. We show how this reference starts to influence the way culture - and especially the clinic - are affected, summoning the subject to deal with the Real of existence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper explores Bion's theory of links, L, H, K (Love, Hate and Knowledge) and their minus counterparts, -L, -H, -K, which are not conceivable as simply opposite to or as a lack of L, H, K. Rather, they correspond to a way of experiencing Love, Hatred and Knowledge in terms of absoluteness, and in terms of a radical impossibility of acknowledging loss, relativeness and absence. The theory of links is also examined in its evolution towards the conceptualization of three types of container/contained configurations (commensal, symbiotic and parasitic). These Bionian models are compared and referred to the way Jung articulates the coexistence of 'good' and 'evil', and the paradoxical nature of mental functioning in relation to the individuation process. The images taken from the Rosarium Philosophorum, particularly the Fons Mercurialis, examined by Jung in 'The psychology of the transference' (1946), are explored in the paper. Theory is examined with a particular focus on the adolescent mind and its dramatic phenomenology. Two excerpts taken from the analytic work with a mid-adolescent female patient and a late-adolescent male patient are presented to describe minus-Hate as a form of absolute love, and minus-Love as a form of absolute hatred.

The transfero-countertransference relationship is a real working tool for the caregiver, the caregiver, the psychist. It invites us to think of hatred and cruelty. Between cruelty and tenderness, what capacities for intrapsychics and intersubjectives re-co-births does the caregiver have in himself in order to consider a patient who is himself in a state of absolute dependence and who survives somatically and psychically? The cruelty in clinical studies of the extrem, that of the clinic of chronic renal failure, is specified here, illustrated. The patient and the caregiver are caught, genuinely and fantastically, between a haematophilic cruelty, consequent on vampiric orality on hemodialysis, and an anthropophagous cruelty, resulting from cannibalic orality in the clinic of renal transplant. A clinical encounter with a transplanted kidney patient and the paradoxical thoughts that it aroused in one of us will refine our point. We will discuss a constituent cruelty to conclude on the need to think in any caregiver hatred and cruelty. For us, this allows to be at the service of the care relationship, therefore of somatopsychic entanglement, to free himself from it so as not to act, in particular by active/passive reversals, this hatred and this cruelty in care.

In Euripides' tragedy Orestes are represented the events occurred in the city of Argos after the murder of Clytemnestra. The main character of the play is the matricide Orestes, who is displayed extremely excited in the planning of a new crime, the one of Helena and her daughter Hermione. This paper aims to analyze hatred towards the woman as motivation of the plot from the psychoanalytic theory of Lacanian orientation. Contempt becomes an antecedent of the tragic action by moving from Clytemnestra towards Helena, emblematic figure of Greek mythology for being considered as the most beautiful woman. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

By referring to a clinical example of psychoanalytic family psychotherapy, the author highlights the relevance of the hate and rivalry dynamics characterizing the sibling and family links. In particular, the author analyses the rivalry identification of the daughter with her dead elder brother, and her hate link with her younger one. The focus on the family's common and shared psychic world allows these dimensions to be considered more in depth. The author describes a sequence of the psychotherapeutic work, also by referring to the use of dream analysis, by focusing particularly on a denial pact that characterises the family dynamics and on the interpsychic dynamics related to the replacement child. The author shows the importance of taking into account both the oedipal and the fraternal dimension in working psychoanalytically with families. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In terms of Freud, the joint yet also opposing action of Eros and Thanatos allows us to understand the phenomena of life. On the other hand, Lacan specifies this affective tension at the level of the subject, in its encounter with the Other and the search for the truth that the Other might possess, because those who love also hate. This paradox is a guiding thread of Cioran's life, particularly of his writing, which was always exquisitely crafted, both philosophically and literarily. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Suicidal acting out was frequent in the literary tradition of Romanticism, where the annihilation of the self was the expression of a passionate hatred of life, grounded in the frustration of the love ideal and the impossibility of enjoying the beloved. On the basis of a case study of The Sorrows of Young Werther, the author explores the existential possibilities of the Romantic hero who ends up killing himself as a result of his unrequited love. This solution was imitated by many readers of Goethe's novel in France. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article works on one of Jorge Luis Borges' most discussed short stories: "Emma Zunz". It inquires into the protagonist's enigmas, construing her as a rotating platform that frames the insult suffered by a daughter torn between the wall of guilt and the sword of vengeful hatred. By clarifying those enigmas, it is possible to understand why the author says that "her father's death was the only thing that had happened in the world and that would keep on happening without end". Her vengeful sacrifice leaves the protagonist chained, frozen forever in hatred, unpunished by human justice, but inevitably bound to the mortification of the superego and mute guilt. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In order to understand what has come to be called the politics of hatred in our times, the article draws on some aspects of Freudian and Lacanian theory, as well as on mathematical logic. It dedicates special interest to an expression that circulated in public spaces during the administration of President Álvaro Uribe Vélez, in an attempt to show how exclusion was organized in his government proposal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Hate is a more lucid affect than love because although both are located in the lack of being, love tries to veil that lack, while hate un-veils it, thus raising the stakes and recognizing that which supplements it: the One. And the One who endures hate is inherent to the social fabric. How, then, will psychoanalysts respond to segregation, which is the result of the combination of capitalism and science? The subjectivity of our times drives us to assume the relay of Lacan. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article attempts to define hate by distinguishing it from other feelings such as anger and resentment. Likewise, it examines how the discourse of hate currently operates, ever more openly and shamelessly, encouraged by xenophobia and fundamentalisms rooted in a conservative view of the world that refuses to accept changes in the notions of family, gender, etc. It also discusses the role of social networks in fostering said discourse or taking it to the extreme of crimes punishable by the law. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Taking Freud's elaborations as its main source, the article seeks to account for manifestations of hatred during mourning. To that effect, we review some of the ideas set forth in "Mourning and Melancholia" in the light of both previous and later texts. We also connect ambivalence to the fate of passions and to the murder of the father of the horde, since dreams of the death of loved ones constitute a privileged path to the Oedipus complex. We construe guilt as a sign of hatred by linking early Freudian formulations with the Lacanian proposal that "we mourn people of whom we can say", "I was his lack". Elisabeth von R. serves as the paradigmatic example of this development that concludes with some of the consequences for psychoanalytical practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article discusses the different figures of hatred toward women: the OEdipal basis of misogyny, the destruction of the mother-daughter relationship, physical violence, the issue of compliments, and the new forms of violence. Thus, rather than presupposing an unified concept, the paper works out a variation according to different aspects of a complex phenomenon. In this way, hatred can be related to violence, without reducing the former to the latter. This is particularly important when shedding light on different perspectives such as that of clinical guidance, which preserves its richness in highlighting certain details of daily life and suggesting different causal hypotheses that avoid the linear interpretation of facts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The author suggest s that harassment is one of the manifestations of hate, and also inquires into the current usage of the term to describe behaviors among children and adolescents in the hallways of French schools. How should we understand the slippage of the main meaning of the term "harassment"? Is it possible to relate it to our modernity, where enjoyment prevails? The emergence of this figure of hatred in schools is the effect of overusing the new social networks, in which the different screens prevent the articulation of the real, the imaginary, and the symbolic, essential for learning how to live together. Apart from our hedonistic social functioning, two more manifestations arise on the public scene: the positivized phallic instance, with the figure of the rod --as in the Jihadist movement-- that causes death, and that of the object of consumption offered by techno-science, which entails the annihilation of the subject. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article provides a brief psychoanalytical inquiry into the passion of hate and its relation to desire, on the basis of clinical presentations carried out during hospital practice. It evaluates the development of said "affect" in the hysterical structure, mentioning the resources used by medicine to cover up or ignore the discovery of the unconscious. Furthermore, it provides examples through references to the analytical literature, as well as to excerpts from musical compositions or film stories. Finally, we leave in suspense the question that arises during intervention in transference, once the post-Freudian idealizing and schematic resource mentioned throughout the text is set aside. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article inquires into the places of hate and the superego in the corporal constitution of anorexic subjects, in whom it is possible to observe disturbances in the way they perceive their bodies, thus leading us to inquire into the narcissistic image. We also observed that hate, as a passion revealed through the superego, prevails in the shaping of the body of the anorexic subject. In developing our inquiry, we specify the influence of the Ideal of the ego and superego on the shaping of the image; we address the relation between the superego and hate, love, and ignorance; and we delve into the articulation between the body in anorexia and hate as an ideal. These reflections allow us to draw several conclusions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article attempts to situate the phenomenon of hate as a clinical fact, within the framework of the analytical session in a case of paranoid psychosis. To that effect, it analyzes the relations among the subject, hatred, and culture, always taking into account the numerous Freudian references to the relations between the phenomenon of hate and paranoia. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Any study concerning the passion of hate (a passion that can already be located in the question of the mirror) must take into account the fact that the audibility and inaudibility, the acceptance, and the rejection of the primordial invocation occur within a time that is neither mythical nor historical, in which the inexistent is called into existence in relation to an incarnated voice. Freud discovered that hate precedes the love that comes to cover it up, and, therefore, hate is first but not primary. The subject is constituted in an "internal exclusion" relationship with the Other, in a primordial rejection that is also acceptance. This logical moment of coalescence and bonding, of cutting and knotting, fosters that staging in which humans hate the Other that is within them, that which is closest yet also strangest. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

By bringing the myth of the murder of the father into play in the contemporary world, the article attempts to evaluate the differentiated paths of repression and repudiation of the original figure of the father, given that hatred is structurally aimed at him. These aspects are evaluated both in the modalities of subjective organization and in the handling of the cure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

On the basis of a perspective that fosters dialogue among psychoanalysis, literature, philosophy, ethnology, and anthropology, the article reflects on Western morality's tendency to deny the ambivalence of drive. This perspective questions both the demonizing abstraction of aggressiveness, hatred, and death and the desubstantialized idealization of sex, love, and life. Thus, it facilitates an appreciation of ambivalence that allows us to think ourselves as both mortal and mortiferous and also brings us face to face with some updated aspects of the old feeling of guilt that are related to orality. The repudiation of ambivalence is but one aspect of the alleged theological or "rational" renunciation of passions and of culture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The author draws on some of André Green's ideas regarding the "work of the negative" in order to carry out a reflection on the history of hatred, destruction, and death, experienced over the past seventy years in Colombia. The article highlights: 1) the use of negation, repudiation, and forclusion as mechanisms to exclude the truth from consciousness at both the individual and social levels; 2) the disappearance of the self behind the object in grief, melancholy, and identification processes, which can be observed in the field of the social when the powerful leader imposes his ideas; 3) the fact that death drive, disinvestment, deobjectalization, and annihilation fall upon the enemy, but also upon the self of the subjugated, those who have lost their own relation to satisfaction, to desire, and to their psychic structure (ego and superego) under the demands of the glorified leader. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article aims at situating the relation between passion and knowledge on the basis of the three passions indicated by Lacan --ignorance, love, and hate. In this endeavor, it highlights the shape that hatred can assume in transference, as well as its development during analysis. To that effect, it makes a series of distinctions regarding the clinical manifestations of hate. The objective of these elaborations is to underline the effects of analysis on hatred and the impossibility of the emergence of separation hate as the concluding moment of the analytical experience. If hate leads to separation from the analyst, this does not entail the dismissal of the Other, but rather, the contrary: hate serves to make the Other exist. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Résumé Cette recherche médico-littéraire concerne pour l’essentiel l’analyse comportementale du mode opératoire du double homicide de Raskolnikov en se basant uniquement sur le roman Crime et Châtiment de Fiodor Dostoïevski. Sont étudiés successivement : la sélection des chapitres de l’ouvrage apportant des informations utiles ; l’état mental de Raskolnikov selon la classification diagnostique américaine moderne ; les mobiles de l’action criminelle ; le niveau d’organisation du double homicide, depuis sa préparation psychologique et matérielle jusqu’à la fin de sa réalisation ; le crime comme moyen d’avouer sa culpabilité (crime par autopunition) ; divers avis littéraires et psychiatriques sur Raskolnikov et son crime. Il résulte de toutes ces informations que ce double homicide est clairement préparé, planifié et exécuté (composante opérationnelle élevée). En dépit des troubles mentaux dont il souffre, Raskolnikov a réussi techniquement son forfait, même s’il n’en a pas tiré bénéfice matériellement et psychologiquement par la suite. Il s’est révélé bon assassin mais voleur médiocre, sa forte culpabilité le poussant à multiplier par la suite les imprudences jusqu’à son arrestation. Abstract This medico-literary study analyzes the behavior of the modus operandi of Raskolnikov's double homicide based solely on Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel Crime and Punishment. The following themes are discussed: the selection of the chapters of the novel that provide useful information; Raskolnikov's mental state according to the modern American diagnostic classification; the motives for his criminal action; how he organized the double homicide, from its psychological and material preparation to its perpetration; crime as a means of confessing guilt (crime by self-punishment); various literary and psychiatric opinions on Raskolnikov and his crime. The analysis of all this information shows this double homicide to have been clearly prepared, planned and executed (high operational component). Despite the mental disorders he suffered from, Raskolnikov technically succeeded, although he did not derive any material or psychological benefit from his crime. He turned out to be a good assassin but an inept thief, his strong sense of guilt leading him to make mistake after mistake until his arrest. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Résumé Objectifs Étudier la misanthropie pathologique dans son rapport à la haine. Méthode Historique du concept de misanthropie. Appui sur le Timon d’Athènes de Shakespeare (1608). Nous verrons en effet en premier lieu comment la misanthropie fut abordée et appréhendée au cours de l’histoire de la psychiatrie. Puis, nous nous intéresserons à la pièce de Shakespeare, dont le personnage central incarne le paradigme de la misanthropie, avec ce point intéressant : Timon est passé de la philanthropie à la misanthropie la plus absolue. Résultats La haine, comme la misanthropie, sont trans-structurales, et prennent des formes et une intensité variables selon les sujets, selon la structure à laquelle ils appartiennent. Elles peuvent sans aucun doute relever de la pathologie, se rencontrer dans certaines formes de psychoses, dans la paranoïa notamment. Nous verrons quelles furent les conditions qui firent passer Timon de la philanthropie à la misanthropie, et de quelle manière la philanthropie, la prodigalité excessive, lui évitèrent pendant longtemps de sombrer dans la folie. Nous verrons donc l’utilité, la fonction de sa philanthropie, et la solution misanthrope qui lui fit haïr l’espèce humaine, la rejeter radicalement, pour finir par mourir dans la solitude. Discussion Nous nous attacherons ainsi à discuter notamment la misanthropie dans son rapport au lien social, puisqu’elle est rejet, haine, et rupture du lien à l’autre, dans son rapport à la paranoïa, et dans son rapport aux semblants, puisque le misanthrope se voue à les dénoncer. Conclusion Timon d’Athènes , de Shakespeare, nous invite à mettre en regard la question de la misanthropie pathologique dans ses rapports à la haine. Elle nous invite plus spécialement à interroger la haine paranoïaque, le basculement de la philanthropie en misanthropie, la fonction préventive de la philanthropie initiale, le vacillement des semblants au moment du déclenchement d’une psychose. Objectives To study pathological misanthropy in its relationship with hatred. Methodology A review of the concept of misanthropy in history, basing the discussion on Shakespeare's Timon of Athens (1608). We will first see how the misanthropy was approached in the course of the history of psychiatry. We will then go on to consider Shakespeare's play, where the central character embodies the paradigm of misanthropy, with one particularity: Timon shifts from philanthropy to the most absolute misanthropy. Results Hatred, like misanthropy, is trans-structural. It takes on variable forms and intensity according to subjects, and to the structure to which they belong. Hatred and misanthropy can undoubtedly be pathological, and can be encountered in certain forms of psychosis, and in paranoia in particular. We will see what it was that made Timon move from philanthropy to misanthropy, and how philanthropy and excessive prodigality for a long time prevented him from sinking into madness. We thus perceive the utility and the function of his philanthropy, and the misanthropic solution that led him to hate the human race, to reject it radically, to finally die in solitude. Discussion We will attempt to articulate misanthropy with social ties, since it is rejection, hatred and a breaking off from the Other, with paranoia, and with appearances, since the misanthrope is intent on denouncing them. Conclusion Shakespeare's Timon of Athens raises the issues of pathological misanthropy and its relationship with hatred. The character invites us more specially to explore paranoid hatred, the shift from philanthropy to misanthropy, the preventive function of his initial philanthropy, and the wavering of appearances at the time of the triggering of a psychosis.

We live in a time when malaise is radicalized and expressed in manifestations of intolerance. We seek to support intolerance as a result of the malaise present in the constitution of borders in the social and subjective fields and in the modes of circulation between territories. There is in intolerance a position of the subject ruled by the consenting ignorance of the complexities at stake - social, political, historical, cultural, linguistic or psychic. In this operation, there is a tripod: paranoia as the matrix of the knowledge of liberal logic, which holds the imaginary of a society under threat and incites the fear of alterity as central political affection and hatred as an adjunct. In an identity logic, which lends itself to a certain 'obturation' of the adventure of desire, the other becomes synonymous with an enemy or object of radical indifference that advocates its disappearance. Ignorance obscures the ambivalence at the heart of the subject and aggressiveness that inhabits each one. But if, on the one hand, hatred or the desire for destruction is constitutive; on the other, it is the subject's choice and responsibility to put it into action. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

At first glance, women's radicalization seems to be opposed to the feminine, considered to be side by side with Eros. This paper seeks to show how, on the contrary, there is a structural link between femininity and radicalization. Based on the study of several clinical cases, it reveals how the central problem of these women is the threat of returning to the pre-Oedipal bond to the mother. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Passionate expressions in our culture set the tone for what we have observed in the political climate. This phenomenon has intensified, producing and authorizing discourses of hatred and violence. This is interconnected with expressions of intolerance (racial, social, ideological, gender), even with the logics of love compatibility. In the affective foundations and the constitutions of identities we find some conditions of possibility of identity formation crossed by affections such as hatred, fear and ignorance, in addition to the direct implications in love and shame. From this, we observe logics of management of passions in the historical moment referred to as capitalist discourse. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Résumé L’auteur, dans une perspective criminologique et médicolégale, rappelle tout d’abord les principaux éléments biographiques d’Emily Brontë et résume l’intrigue dramatique de son célèbre roman, Les Hauts de Hurle-vent (Wuthering Heights) (1847). Il passe ensuite successivement en revue les points suivants : agressions et blessures, enlèvement et séquestration, état des cadavres, violations de sépulture, autres problèmes. Dans son analyse du processus passionnel réciproque entre Heathcliff et Catherine, l’auteur constate qu’Heathcliff présente de graves troubles de la personnalité avec des traits paranoïaques, borderline et antisociaux associés à des éléments dépressifs et pervers sadiques. Cet ancien vagabond, devenu pour se venger le « maître » de deux familles patriciennes, accumule les facteurs de dangerosité et l’on peut s’étonner qu’il n’ait pas tué Catherine et/ou son mari Edgar. L’absence de relations sexuelles entre les deux amoureux, amis d’enfance, a sans doute joué un rôle important en empêchant le passage à l’acte meurtrier. Ne pouvant accepter la séparation avec Catherine (mariage puis décès de cette dernière), Heathcliff se laissera mourir pour être enterré à côté d’elle et obtenir enfin une relation amoureuse absolue avec l’objet de sa passion. In a criminological and forensic perspective, the author first presents the main biographical data concerning Emily Brontë and summarizes the plot of her famous novel, Wuthering Heights (1847). He then discusses the following: assault and battery, kidnapping and unlawful detention, the state of corpses, violations of burial sites, and other issues. In analysing the reciprocal passion that burns between Catherine and Heathcliff, the author reveals the latter to be suffering from a serious personality disorder with paranoid, borderline and antisocial features associated with depressive and sadistic evil tendencies. This former vagabond, who becomes the “master” of two patrician families in order to gain revenge, presents several characteristics of dangerousness, and it is surprising that he did not kill Catherine and/or her husband Edgar. The absence of sexual relations between the two lovers, who were childhood friends, probably played an important role in preventing him from perpetrating the act of murder. Unable to accept the separation from Catherine (marriage and death of the latter), Heathcliff allows himself to die so that he can be buried next to her and finally attain an absolute amorous relationship with the object of his passion.

Résumé Objectifs L’auteur se propose de démontrer que la colère, manifestation émotionnelle négative, joue un rôle important dans la genèse des comportements violents. Il remarque que peu d’études scientifiques sont consacrées aux relations colère–crime. Méthode L’auteur passe rapidement en revue l’histoire des civilisations, du droit pénal et de la psychiatrie pour illustrer son propos. Il rappelle le rôle du système nerveux limbique dans le déclenchement de l’agressivité et du stress ainsi que les relations de la colère avec l’impulsivité, l’irritabilité, la frustration, la dépression, l’anxiété, la haine. Il fait part de sa longue expérience professionnelle en psychiatrie légale. Résultats L’auteur a observé de multiples formes cliniques de la colère chez les criminels violents et il décrit des « colères pathologiques » qui se différencient des colères « normales » comme les ivresses compliquées se différencient des ivresses simples. Dans le DSM-5, l’auteur note que le mot « colère » fait partie des critères diagnostiques, différentiels ou associés dans de nombreuses pathologies. Il cite les diverses catégories de crimes violents où la colère est impliquée dans le passage à l’acte. Discussion Cet état de fait nécessite une évaluation du comportement coléreux chez les agresseurs violents. Des échelles d’évaluation de la crise de colère ( anger-state ), du caractère coléreux ( anger-trait ) et du contrôle de la colère ( anger-control ) sont à la disposition des cliniciens et des experts judiciaires. Conclusion La colère, lorsqu’elle est impliquée dans les comportements violents, doit être diagnostiquée et traitée au moyen de programmes thérapeutiques spécifiques. La forte relation entre colère et violence intra- et extrafamiliale doit retenir l’attention des professionnels de la santé mentale. Objectives The author proposes to demonstrate that the negative emotional manifestation of anger plays an important role in the genesis of violent behaviour. He remarks that very few scientific studies have been carried out regarding the relationship between anger and crime. Methods The author touches briefly upon the history of civilization, criminal law and psychiatry to illustrate his point. He recalls the role of the limbic nervous system in the triggering of aggression and stress as well as the relationships between anger, impulsivity, irritability, frustration, depression, anxiety and hatred. The author refers to his extensive professional experience in forensic psychiatry. Results The author observed multiple forms of clinical anger in violent criminals and describes that “pathological anger” differs from “normal” anger in the way that complicated drunkenness can be distinguished from simple drunkenness. The author notes that in the DSM-V the word “anger” is part of the diagnostic criteria, differential or associated, in many pathologies. He cites the various categories of violent crime where anger is involved in the commission of an act. Discussion This situation calls for an assessment of angry behaviour among violent offenders. Assessment scales to facilitate the evaluation of the fit of “rage” (anger-state), the irascible character (anger-trait) an controlling anger (anger-control) are made available to clinicians and forensic experts. Conclusion Anger, when it is involved in violent behaviour, must be diagnosed and treated by means of specific therapeutic programs. The strong relationship between anger and violence, within and outside the family, requires the attention of mental health professionals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Although the hate supports the self-conservative aggressiveness, it is distinguished from it. From the clinical experience point of view, this article attempts to distinguish faces of the hate. The Oedipal hate is objectal, it relates to the murder of a rival. This is hate that implies three persons and it is relative: the hate of the one is the measure of the love of another. The turning into its opposite are always possible, which makes the loved one day to be the hated tomorrow, and vice versa. The borderline hate is egotic and narcissistic, it is searching for the killing, the extermination, much more than murder. The hated one is less an object than a foreign for the Ego, in my opinion, an intruder, and an invader, someone who threatens the territorial integrity, which encroaches on the borderline.

Hatred as an ingredient of inter-subjective workings is present in psychic life in different circumstances. In the clinical situation it reveals its multiple faces. Here we focus on the positive form that hatred can take on from a psychoanalytical perspective, as essential affect and a dynamic element in the affirmation of the ego. A clinical case illustrates this discussion. In brief, the paper stresses the need to amplify the analytical listening to hatred, its interpretation, and its management, which vary according to the vicissitudes it takes up and its purposes in psychic economy.

Winnicott invites us, in 1947, to work through the countertransference and thus to have access to the hate feelings that our patients inspire in us. Winnicott is quite clear: the analyst could help his patients recognise their hate drives with one condition: to recognise beforehand in himself his own hate drives, in his own work analysis. To work through the primitive elements, here is an honest deal: to transform your hate in exchange for understanding and the capacity to bear the other's hate. The process of sublimation is in the core of "working through the countertransference" itself. So, what this work is displacing seems to be like "the absence of a direct response to the patient's transference". Winnicott sets forth a contemporary way of thinking the analytic work, because the capacity to bear a negative transference and a negative countertransference is always a very complicated moment to work through in the analytic cures. With the study of Medeea, we found an absolute form of hate - the dis-symbolisant hate. Medeea help us understand how the hate of life drives (represented here by the children) is originated in the hate of oneself. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: The author proposes to show in what devastation does it is to be apprehended like a “quasi-structure” relative to female, registered in the logic of the love. Report/ratio with the mother with the report/ratio with the lover, the devastation is done put to the test of the love, highlighting a logic beyond the phallus and implying the body. The paradigm of adolescence and more particularly the symptom anorexic clarify the statute of the body and its pleasure for the female subject. Behind the pretences, when they are untied, emerges the reality of the devastation. The love leads to the devastation when he asks even more identity, to be even more. The devastation leads to the hainamoration, this zone of the analytical experiment that Jacques Lacan highlighted in the vein of what it names passions to be. Hatred as fundamental passion is questioned here in its statute to be rehabilitated in a contemporary social link, which is harnessed to evacuate the dimension of the lack and the otherness whereas the body, place of the Other par excellence, pays the price of them.

L'article traite du rôle de la philosophie dans les projets géopolitiques modernes, et surtout du rôle des philosophes intellectuels dans le développement des sociétés sur la voie du progrès. L'implication des intellectuels dans la politique est envisagée de la perspective de la vénalité et de l'intégrité de ceux-ci, la quêté de la vérité restant une vocation exclusive des philosophes réalistes. Néanmoins, la raison et l'intelligence peuvent être utilisées dans des fins destructives, tel est le cas des sociétés totalitaires communistes dans lesquelles le mensonge et la haine sont organisés intellectuellement et induisent en erreur les peuples. L'auteur propose des isotopies typologiques, appuyées également par des philosophèmes appartenant à des personnalités notoires de la pensée philosophiques universelle. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Hatred is a negative sentiment, implying the wish to hurt or to kill a person. Original and universal, it is found in several types of psychopathological disorders (normal, neurotic, borderline, psychotic). Ignored by most of psychiatric handbooks and litterature, it is a prevalent topic (concept) in psychoanalytical litterature. Unfortunately there is no rating scale to quantify these cognitive and emotional states or traits. The assessment of such a sentiment would probably improve the prediction of dangerosity and violence, and the assessment of the efficacy of cognitive treatments. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
