El humorista y el fin del análisis.

The article pursues three objectives. On the one hand, it sheds light on the close relation between the comic and death, and, on the other, it situates the link between humor and the super-ego in order to explore a possible effect of the "humorist" label. On this basis, it finally suggests a hypothesis regarding the end of analysis in terms of the notion of "identification with the symptom". [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
