In this paper I am arguing for the recognition of the implicit structural and emotional links between the development of mind and psyche and the more-than-human world. I suggest that it is because of this interpenetration that the uncanny experience of displacement anxiety and its effects on our capacities to think and make links is an under-appreciated aspect of our constant 'forgetting' of the building syndrome of our Earth's symptomatology. I make use of my own theory of the 'organizing gestalt' and the thinking of Maturana, Ingold and Colman to offer a framework for the consideration of the uncanny links between what we know about vanishing biodiversity, broken ecosystems and the breaking down of previously integrated Earth systems and the breaking down of our ways of thinking about our relationships with the more-than-human-world. I suggest that, taken together, such a framework feels remarkably akin to Australian indigenous ways of being in the world. Finally, I ask the question, what might it mean to think ecologically in our psychoanalytic work? [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

La traduction de la littérature jeunesse présente certaines spécificités, car elle doit être soumise aux plusieurs contraintes : prise en compte du destinataire double en littérature jeunesse (enfant et adulte), de la finalité pédagogique, de la variation diastratique, etc. Merveilleux voisins (2016) d’Hélène Lasserre est un livre pour enfants qui parle de la différence, de la tolérance et du vivre-ensemble. L’écart entre les cultures française et ukrainienne entraine les problèmes de la perception des realia socioculturels par les lecteurs de la langue cible qui les mécomprennent parfois ou même rejettent. Dans un premier temps, nous analyserons la perception de l’album par le lectorat de la culture source et et celui de la culture cible en nous basant sur les commentaires des lecteurs ce qui nous permettra de comprendre les stratégies éditoriales et les choix de procédés de traduction faits par les traducteurs. Notamment, nous étudierons les rapports texte-image et l’influence des facteurs extralinguistiques sur le niveau lexical. Dans un second temps, il conviendra d’analyser le rôle de la finalité pédagogique qui peut entrainer une certaine censure du texte pour enfants à laquelle le traducteur doit obéir pour répondre à la demande d’un éditeur et de son lectorat.

L'article présente une étude clinique du syndrome de dépersonnalisation. Nous présentons un cas typique de cet état pour interroger les destins du sens interne dans la psychopathologie et les modes de la subjectivation de la vie dans la psychose. L'étude détaillée du cas d'Aurèlie permet de comprendre que le syndrome de dépersonnalisation confronte la patiente avec une expérience de désubjectivation où l'ex-sistence même du sujet psychologique est mise en cause. Ceci nous amène à questionner l'abord clinique de ce phénomène. Car les descriptions qui se satisfont du simple constat du désordre de certaines fonctions psychiques (telles que la sensibilité ou la perception) semblent rater l'essentiel: le fait que ce syndrome décrit un défaut majeur du rapport à la vie. Nous essayons de le démontrer. Il nous paraît nécessaire d'ouvrir une interrogation clinique, qui, en deçà de la sémiologie traditionnelle, pose la question des variations psychopathologiques non plus comme des écarts de la norme, mais comme des modes de la subjectivation de la vie. The article presents a clinical study of depersonalization syndrome. We present a typical case of this state in order to investigate the destinys of the internal sense in psychopathology, as well as the modes of subjectivation of life in psychosis. The detailed study of Aurélie's case allows us to understand that depersonalization syndrome confronts the patient with an experience of desubjectivation where the very existence of the psychological subject is put into question. This leads us to question the clinical aspect of this phenomenon. Indeed, descriptions that do not go beyond a simple observation of the disorder of certain psychic functions (such as sensitivity or perception) seem to miss the point: the fact that this syndrome describes a major defect in the subject's relationship with life. It seems necessary to develop a clinical questioning, which, beyond traditional semiology, would pose the question of psychopathological variations no longer as deviations from the norm, but as modes of the subjectivation of life.

In the linguistic transition to a new culture, it is possible to inhabit multiple languages with different parts of the Self. In migrant families, the language shapes the identity of family members, also acting on family ties and their transmission. The foreign language does not allow to translate the infantile sensory memories belonging to the parent's Self. In the exemplified case, the mother found herself living two different maternity experiences, characterized by the use of two languages. The use of a foreign language has hindered the creation of an intimate relationship between mother and second-born daughter. Excluded by maternal choice from the use of her mother tongue, the girl became the "familiar stranger". Analytical listening made it possible to trace the "shares of extraneousness" present in the mother-child relationship, the echo of the mother's conflicting experiences in her own experience as a daughter, dissociated in the use of a foreign language.

The "stranger" and the "other" are very different intrapsychic and relational topics both in their sources and their developments. Particularly is examined what's happen in migration when the foreign can suddenly become a "stranger" more then simply an "other". The perception of the migrants seems to waver between a complete otherness and a distorted double. As Abdelmalek Sayad said, migration has a "mirror function": both migrants and natives see in each other their own "strange parts", parts that they can't recognize as theirs. All this is examined in the complex situation of the coronavirus pandemic, with its deep psychic and anthropological consequences due to the sudden alteration of the borderline between the familiar/safe and the unfamiliar/dangerous with its anxiuos and uncanny effects that seem to transform any "other" in a "stranger".

«De Bruxelles à Constantinople» s’inscrit dans le cadre de la littérature de voyage en Orient au dix-neuvième siècle. L’intérêt du présent article consiste à situer la représentation de la Grèce moderne, réalisée par un auteur flamand, par rapport aux récits de voyage en langue française après la fondation de l’état grec indépendant en 1830. Dans son journal de voyage, Spitaels nous apporte une approche romantique et sentimentale de la Grèce moderne à l’instar de la plupart de ses voyageurs contemporains. Une fois son image classique idéalisée est démentie dans la réalité, l’auteur fait preuve d’une grande déception dans ses impressions de voyage. Cependant, sa vision personnelle sur la grécité s’avère intéressante d’autant plus qu’elle est enrichie de ses expériences politiques personnelles et de son jugement perspicace. En fait, son discours audacieux s’avère très caustique à l’égard du rôle diplomatique européen dans l’affaire grecque. Malgré son intention initiale d’adopter un regard objectif et distant envers les Grecs modernes en évitant les fausses impressions, l’auteur compare souvent la Grèce moderne avec la Grèce ancienne de ses livres d’enfance et ne réussit pas à dissimuler son sentiment d’étrangeté forte face à la culture différente de l’«Autre».

The exceptional work of Edmond Jabès benefited from abundant critical readings coming from multiple horizons. Nevertheless, one can observe a clear imbalance in favour of the volumes that constitute Le Livre des questions or, at least, the absence of in-depth studies analysing systematically the notion of “resemblance” and those other notions that, being closely associated with it, make it fully meaningful. This study, by making its way through the maze of concepts and images that Jabès elaborated around a poetic intuition, tries to understand the no-tion of resemblance, and the uncertainty that naturally accompanies it, through the experience of exile, the quest for thresholds, the practice of writing. L’œuvre exceptionnelle d’Edmond Jabès s’est épanchée sous l’impulsion de nombreuses lectures critiques venant d’horizons multiples. On constate néan-moins un déséquilibre en faveur des volumes qui constituent Le Livre des ques-tions ou, tout du moins, l’absence de travaux approfondis analysant de manière systématique la notion de ressemblance et celles qui, y étant étroitement associées, la rendent pleinement significative. Cette étude, en se frayant un chemin dans le dédale de concepts et d’images que Jabès a élaborés autour d’une intuition poétique, tente ainsi de comprendre la notion de ressemblance, et l’incertitude qui tout naturellement l’accom¬pagne, à travers l’expérience de l’exil, la recherche du seuil, la pratique de l’écriture.

RÉSUMÉ: Le mot «migrants» n'existait pas dans la langue des Hellènes; ils étaient plus familiers avec le vocable de l'exil et de l'asile. D'ailleurs, l'exil ne saurait se penser sans son corollaire, l'asile, comme le citoyen antique sans le barbare et la démocratie sans la tyrannie. À travers une métaphore située au carrefour de la fiction historique, de la philosophie politique et de la psychanalyse, cet article propose une réflexion sur l'exil comme condition fondamentale du sujet. L'exil est d'origine, car la langue de l'enfance, la langue dite maternelle est d'abord une langue étrangère. L'exil intime porte la marque d'une universalité qui fonde l'expérience subjective.

La dizaine d’apparitions du chauffe-eau dans La Carte et le territoire ne semble pas anodine. En contextualisant cette machine sous la plume de Houellebecq, le présent article se propose d’interpréter les liens entre le chauffe-eau et le style de l’écriture houellebecquienne, le dérou­lement du récit et la mise en valeur des sujets dans ce roman. Ainsi, le chauffe-eau, susceptible d’être identifié à Houellebecq ou à Jed, accède-t-il au langage articulé. There is a great significance existing in the machine – water heater, which appears more than ten times in the novel La Carte et le territoire. This paper aims at exploring the connection between the water heater, Houellebecq’s writing style, the narrative process and the theme in the novel through contextualizing the water heater in the novel. The water heater, which stands for Houellebecq or Jed, has access to an articulate langage.

French travelers of the nineteenth century in Greece become gradually sensitive to the foreign and strange reality of the Greeks. The tendency to exotic writing coincides with the pursuit of the local color and confirms the influence of romanticism as much as the growing ethnographic interest among writers of the time. In fact, the intention of most travelers to be distant towards Greeks inhabitants, which reinforces their undisputed cultural shock, does not encourage opening to the "Other". Moreover, the authentic words of the Greek language express the astonishment and charm of the exoticism of writers who aim to highlight strange and representative elements of otherness. On the other hand, the birth of a new look sometimes introduces a form of reciprocity into the meeting using non-verbal language. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A selective description and a discussion of a contemporary Canadian film are presented. Through an elaboration on depictions of the protagonist’s psychic suffering in this work of fiction, the film discussion revisits classic psychoanalytic perspectives on adolescent delinquent behaviour that have contemporary relevance. Freud’s “The Uncanny” and its historical relation to some fundamental clinical concepts such as superego and projective identification are also considered, with reference to the influence of Clifford Scott on Melanie Klein’s work and the origins of the latter concept.

This article is about an analysis of the short-story Berenice, of Edgar Allan Poe. The short-story is part of a collection of mystery and horror stories, and it's in what they call fantastic fiction. The analysis proposed is based on psychoanalysis, by viewing it as a method of knowledge by interpretation, yet without disregard elements of literary critics. There were outstanding points in the results of this study the appearance of psychoanalysis and fantastic fiction, the matter of the double, the space in the narrative, the dream, fantasies about the horrifying scene and the horror fiction as a possibility to access the uncanny and the abandonment, as well as act on the desire of transgression.

L’étude qui suit tente à identifier des points de convergence entre la prose courte de Marin Preda, Nicolae Velea et George Bălăiţă, concernant la thématique, les prototypes humains, les techniques narratives etc. D’une influence marquante pour la narration à dimensions restreintes de l’ainsi dite génération ’60, le tome de Preda – Întâlnirea din pământuri – enregistre un progrès en synchronie (par rapport aux créations de la cinquième décennie) et en diachronie, dépassant l’horizon limité, la thématique et les moyens artistiques redundants qui caractérisaient les courants littéraires de la fin du XIXe siècle et du début du vingtième. Le moment Preda sera considéré par la critique littéraire l’un révolutionnaire grâce à la modalité de percevoir le paysan, ainsi que pour la filiation entre son œuvre nouvellistique et les adeptes de la prose courte qui vont suivre la voie de l’écrivain. L’insolite des protagonistes que les prosateurs mentionnés apportent sur la scène de la littérature roumaine connaît une grande diversité. Des individus moqueurs, d’une réelle intelligence native, l’œil des écrivains glisse vers les psychologies abyssale, vers le divorce entre le cognitif et l’émotionnel qui donne naissance à des états confusionnels et inexplicables pour les héros euxmêmes.

Résumé Objectifs L’article cherche à expliciter et à interroger l’ambiguïté nosographique qui caractérise l’usage psychiatrique du terme de dépersonnalisation, entre névrose et psychose. Il propose de formuler ce problème nosographique sous son versant clinique, en questionnant le caractère transnosographique de la dépersonnalisation à partir des mécanismes de dissociation ou de scission qu’elle implique pour le sujet. Méthode Nous proposons d’éclairer l’équivocité de cette entité clinique dans la psychiatrie contemporaine en la rapportant aux caractérisations classiques des vécus de dépersonnalisation, élaborées depuis la fin du xix e siècle. Cette perspective historique permettra de dégager des éléments pour une clinique différentielle des formes de dépersonnalisation, qui soit fondée sur un affinage des traits de leur sémiologie et de leur phénoménologie, et sur des hypothèses métapsychologiques portant sur les modalités défensives qu’ils incarnent. Résultats Après avoir souligné la filiation entre les définitions du syndrome de dépersonnalisation dans les classifications psychiatriques contemporaines et les descriptions classiques d’une dépersonnalisation névrotique, caractérisée par une expérience de dédoublement du sujet, on interrogera deux autres figures de la dépersonnalisation, mettant en jeu des phénoménologies et des fonctions psychiques différentes. Le dédoublement du moi dans la dépersonnalisation névrotique peut notamment être mis en regard avec une dépersonnalisation incarnant une tentative d’auto-neutralisation du sujet, qui questionne ses capacités de contenance psychique. Une tonalité psychotique de la dépersonnalisation interroge quant à elle l’angoisse d’anéantissement, et une tentative de lutter contre l’envahissement délirant ou hallucinatoire. Discussion Ces formes typiques – et non exhaustives – de la dépersonnalisation mettent en évidence les limites d’une approche syndromique qui associe ce phénomène à une sémiologie unique, issue des traits qu’il revêt le plus souvent dans les névroses. Elles soulignent la pertinence clinique d’une compréhension transnosographique de la dépersonnalisation, mais pointent la nécessité d’un affinage d’une sémiologie différentielle, reliée aux différentes modalités de défense et de protection qu’elle est susceptible d’incarner. Conclusions Préciser les mécanismes et fonctions de défense mis en œuvre dans les expériences de dépersonnalisation s’oppose à une conception déficitaire de ce phénomène, qui l’associerait à une dissolution des repères ou d’une capacité de synthèse du moi. Les différentes formes de scission du sujet à l’origine des vécus dépersonnalisants – dédoublement, désintrication soma-psyché, clivage – interrogent à la fois des éprouvés subjectifs et des fonctions défensives distinctes. Objectives The aim of the paper is to examine the nosographic ambiguity of the term depersonalization in psychiatry, between neurosis and psychosis. We propose to formulate this nosographic issue in clinical terms, which means questioning the transnosographic nature of depersonalization on the basis of the mechanisms of dissociation or split that come into play for the subject. Method The ambiguities characterizing the concept of depersonalization in the present-day field of psychiatry can be set against the first descriptions of these experiences, at the turn of the xx th century. From this historical perspective, some clinical distinctions can be sketched out, making it possible to identifying various forms of depersonalization. This historical perspective enables elements to be identified for a differential clinical approach to the various forms of depersonalization, based on a refinement of the various features of their semiology and their phenomenology, and on meta-psychological hypotheses concerning the defense mechanisms involved. Results After pointing out the affiliations between the definitions of the syndrome of depersonalization in contemporary psychiatric classifications and the classic descriptions of neurotic depersonalization, characterized by an experience of split personality or dissociative identity disorder, two other instances of depersonalization are explored, which call on different phenomena and different psychic functions. The split ego in neurotic depersonalization in particular can be set against a form of depersonalization corresponding to an attempt at self-neutralization by the subject, who doubts his abilities for psychic containment. Discussion These typical – but non-exhaustive – forms of depersonalization demonstrate the limits of an approach in terms of syndrome, associating the phenomenon with a single semiology, derived from the features most often observed in neuroses. They point to the clinical relevance of a transnosographic view of depersonalization, and also to the need to refine a differential semiology, linked to the different modes of defense and protection that depersonalization can take on. Conclusions Defining the defense mechanisms and their functions in experiences of depersonalization is at odds with a deficit-related conception of the phenomenon, associating it with loss of bearings or loss of the ability to synthesize the self. The different forms of splitting in the subject leading to the experience of depersonalization – split identity, body-psyche dissociation, etc. – require consideration of both subjective experience and distinct defensive functions.

This contribution presents the mental apparatus, postulated in the metapsychology of Freud and subsequent authors, as governed by the difficult coexistence of conflicting and opposing mental territories and forces that accompany each individual's problematic confrontation with otherness on both an intra-psychic and interpersonal level. This contentiousness can be described in terms of a simultaneous opposition and overlapping of familiarity and alienness. Freud's 1919 essay. "The Uncanny", identifies the unconscious as the principal locus of this conflictual coexistence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper the author explores the emotional factors that are activated at the level of the cultural unconscious, that produce experiences of the uncanny that are expressed through Phantom Narratives. Phantom Narratives as a hybridized term is the author’s way of linking personal and social activity of unconscious story formation through psychic presences (images). Phantom Narratives are expressions of the unconscious at the level of the group that shows the psyche’s way of narrating its relationship to the group, through the expressions of cultural, social, and political issues. The uncanny, at the level of the social, is seen as those disturbances of feelings that alienate us from the familiar social world of others. What is uncanny about Phantom Narratives is how group emotional dynamics are represented as psychic presences. Making use of the author’s own subjectivity (i.e. psychoanalytic literary genre) he uses an approach from analytic psychology (Jungian) called amplification, which allows for the elaboration of symbolic processes, to create a meaningful (semantic) context for exploration.

This paper explores the contemporary strength of two of last century's most emphatic voices: Ludwig Wittgenstein and Samuel Beckett. The following mottos are brought together with special attention: nothing is hidden, by Wittgenstein (Philosophical Investigations, §435); and nothing to express, by Beckett (Three dialogues with Georges Duthuit, I). Wittgenstein's saying is frequently taken as indication that he renounces his earlier distinction between what can be said and what can only be shown (Tractatus, Preface, 6.522). Beckett's saying is, in turn, often seen as evidence of a skeptical take on language, whereas it is, so to speak, doomed to self-reference. These interpretations tend to be linked to the widespread perceptions that Wittgenstein writes the ordinary, whereas Beckett writes the absurd. I question some aspects of these two productive readings, arguing that, in a somewhat debilitating manner, they tend to ignore, or perhaps pacify, a strangeness that insists in saying-showing itself in the poetic prose of both authors.

Abstract: Recent advances in the area of handicap have modified the practical approach to it considerably. After a period in which the notion of “mourning the imaginary child” dominated, one that was imposed on the parents as a necessary ordeal, we are now in a context where the words “partnership, project, continuity of care and integration” are in currency. We no longer speak of a handicapped person but of a person with a handicap. This evolution requires us to reconsider the redistribution of the respective roles between specialists and non-specialists and to think again about the modes of care provided, in particular the relation between parents and professionals. It is in this context that there is a need to reflect on the status of the handicapped person and on the fate that is reserved for him, with reference to an analysis of the unconscious representations that the handicap inevitably arouses which constitute the source of persistent attitudes of rejection or, worse, indifference.

Abstract: One and the other represent the original entity from which the humanity arises. This leads to the reciprocity feeling which can be viewed as a robust basis for a non-relativistic universal morale. This alchemy also works inside the family, between children and parents. Maturation of the bonds between them progressively transforms an initial fusion stage into a fully accepted reciprocity. This latter one, however, is not always easy to reach, and can sometimes be blocked by psychological and (or) physiopathological impairments of the relationship. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
