Use
and abuse of transference
Ronaldo Mendes de Oliveira Castro *
Summary:
The author delimits the wide theme of transference
to the analytic relationship. He refers, succinctly,
to some concepts associated to the evolution of the
phenomenon of transference and countertransference,
as
conceived by Freud, Klein and Bion, emphasizing aspects
related to its use, acting-outs (transgressions) and
abuses, in analysis. Finally, he reports two situations
from his experience, where transgressions and or enactments
occurred in the analytic process, with the purpose
of enriching the discussion and reflection over the
issue.
Key words: transference, countertransference,
analytic relationship, concept and evolution, use,
abuse, transgression, acting-out, enactment.

Uses
and abuses of transference
Maria da Penha Zabani Lanzoni*
Summary:
Inspired by my clinical work; by the criticism of
the concept of unconscious done by Isaias Melsohn;
by the work of Fabio Herrmann and the concept of transferencial
field; by Durkheim who thinks that two individuals
together makes a psychic life of a new gender; at
this paper I propose an alternative way of working
with patients that considers this transferencial fild
and not only transference and countertransference.
Key words: unconcious, field,
transference, transferencial field.

Use
and abuse of transference
Paulo Marchon*
Summary:
The author focuses the importance of the developed
transferencial relation in an analysis and calls the
attention for the ethics problematic involving the
patient, analyst, supervisors and teachers, face to
the special situation of the patients and, specifically,
of the candidates. The consideration of these problems
shows the importance to favor the dialogue inside
the societies and calls the attention for some possible
attempts of approach. It considers the possibility
of a Ouvidoria in order to make easier the attendance
of such questions with a minimum of bureaucracy and
a maximum of dialogue. It
remembers the case of Masud Khan, that, forty years
later, still it troubles the British Society, as it
is in the paper of Anne Marie Sandler, as well as
in the editorial of the International Journal of Psychoanalysis.

Anorexia,
bulimia and compulsions: histories of secrets and
passions
Marina Ramalho Miranda
Summary:
The psychoanalysis viewpoint offers its contributions
which take the anorexic and bulimic phenomenon as
manifestations of a psychological suffering, extremely
powerful defensive organizations that capture the
mind into a corporeal prison, by the violent body
expression and the successive acting-outs typical
of the contemporary age, where the thinking elaboration
is swapped by the impulsive actions of the concrete
mind, becoming impossible to the mind of these women**
to satisfy their desires and wishes that stay denied
and lost.
Women who merge with the maternal figure go into the
reverse way of the nature during all the time, hiding
their feminine attractives, denying the hunger, pain,
sexual desires, such as affective necessities in general
and they choose food and body as fetish-representatives
of an affect which, in fact, is not concerned with
the nourishment in its own sense.
Key words: anorexia, bulimia,
psychological suffering, nourishment.

Narcisic
pathologies and otherness
Paulo Cesar Sandler*
Summary:
This study focus on macro-social consequences of some
aspects linked to the paranoid-schizoid position and
narcissism. They originate contempt to life and to
other people. Devoid of psychologisms and sociologisms,
which are seen as reductionisms, therefore with no
reductionism the author makes use of the theme, “Psycho-analysis
and Power”. Which he had brought to light in
1986, in an attempt to illuminate some psychotic mechanisms
and states of shared halucinosis. They seem to be
the hallmark of the rise and fall of totalitarian-criminal
political regimes. The fact that the fall is sudden
and occurs with lightning speed is focused.
Issues of concern to life and to truth are included,
as well as practical examples of attempts to insert
psycho-analysis in environments marked by politics
and phantasies of power and immortality.
Phantasies of power are considered under the light
of an irresolvable paradox, rather than a cause-effect
relationship. Thus, it may be seen as simultaneously
extrinsic and intrinsic to the individual. It is extrinsic
in the extent it substantiates itself in pairs and
groups, concretized in collusion and crossed projective
identifications – which by their turn are always
in dependence of relationships between people. These
relationships must include idealization and sadistic
phantasies. And at the same time, the phantasy of
power is intrinsic to the individuals who need to
have a given innate endowment – probably genetically
– of narcissism, and schizoid-paranoid traits.
Primary envy does its homework when it has halucinosis
as its media, concretizing the phantasy of power.
Both the “powerful” and the “cowed
follower” are equals when the phantastic state
of halucinosis prevails. Giving the lack of evidence
of the superiority of a given human being over another,
as all lies and phantasies, it is amenable to be concretized
in a per force destructive outcome, in the realm of
material reality, as a reproduction of the destruction
that occurred in the realm of psychic reality.
Key words: psycho-analysis,
power, projective indentification, halucinosis, narcissism,
otherness, paranoid-schizoid position, idealization,
links, sadism.

The
narcissism in the analytical relation – Basic
experience of rupture
Maria de Fátima Rebouças Malva*
Summary:
Approaching the freudian concept of “ideal of
the ego” (1923/1976) to the one of “melancholy”
(1917/1974), the author studies a specific state of
mind, particular to the anguish experimented due to
the threat of loss of the object. It is refered to
an ego wounded by the deep imperfections in its attempts
of relation with the object, assembling, because of
an enormous anguish, a necessity of justifying the
efficiency of the lived objetal relation. The experience
of nonsense is presented inside of an empty speech,
since it does not find references, in its internal
world, that allows it to support the impasse.
The dynamics is brought to the analytical relation,
considering the multiplicity of all the emotional
experiences undertaken at each moment in a particular
way. The gathering of the minds, both from the analyst
and analyzed, determines the points touched in their
emergent narcissisms and defenses. In this article,
the author focus in these moments in which both egos
(analyst and analysed) feel threatened by the abandonment
and by the emptiness decurrent from the impossibility
of thinking, in the specific situation of confront
of these egos, leading to what is denominated basic
experience of rupture.
Key-words: Narcissism, analytical
relation, basic experience of rupture, ideal of the
ego, melancholy, psychical representative of abandonment,
shadow of the object, identification.

The
hard man-woman relationship: the vicissitudes of the
conviviality with the differences
Ambrozina Amalia Coragem Saad*
Abstract:
In the present article gender relationship are discussed,
with focus on the conflict for power and the acceptance
of sexual differences. Representations and symbols
of masculine and feminine conditions in our society
are here examined, exploring recent changes and stereotypes.
We also offer a review about male and female ideologies
and discourses, taken as expressions of these gender
relations, illustrated by some of our Brazilian folksongs.
We conclude that the singular and enigmatic character
of the human condition that arises from the inteaction
between nature and culture does not lend itsef to
rigid or well-definid patterns of gender relations.

The
power of alienating identifications in terms of gender
Teresa Rocha Leite Haudenschild*
Summary:
The author presents two clinical cases where trans-generational
identifications and fantasies hampered the mental
growth of the analysands. When detected, these identifications
can be named and, as selected facts, focused on, and
the work toward seeking the meanings of emotional
experienced in the intra-psychic and inter-subjective
relationships can begin. It is therefore important
for the analyst to have this set of theoretical instruments
at hand in his/her transferential-countertransferential
approach, which will often make it possible for analysand
and analyst to overcome impasses in the analytic process
that would otherwise be insuperable. To conclude,
the author proposes that psychoanalysts should not
fail to contextualize the individual in his/her group
and culture, in the name of a “purist psychoanalysis,”
which, in her opinion, is impoverishing.
Key words: alienating identifications,
transgenerational fantasies, transgenerational capability.

Barbarianism,
terrorism and psychoanalysis
Ney Couto Marinho*
Summary:
The author starts from the assumption that the Congress’
proposal is sensible, namely: psychoanalysis has something
to say about terrorism and barbarianism. He thinks
that whatever conceptualization of terrorism is meant,
it always contains an irrational dimension, which
is a specific object of psychoanalysis. He discusses
the relationship between progress and rationality
from the point of view of contemporary philosophy
of science (Larry Laudan) and psychoanalysis (Hans
Thorner). The aspect of loss is underlined and consequently
the mourning which goes side by side the notion of
progress. Background clinical material is used in
its discussion of many terror situations in our times.
The debate between Habermas and Derrida about the
event 09/11/01 is mentioned. The author calls our
attention to their divergences and the convergence:
mourning for the reason of enlightenment and the rescue
of its promises. At the end he articulates “the
crisis of psychoanalysis” and the failure of
the enlightenment reason. The text contains chronological
references to Freud’s reaction to the disillusionment
of the First World War.
Key words: barbarianism, terrorism,
psychoanalysis, progress, rationality, mourning.

Looking
for precious stones on the psychoanalysis literature
boundary
Carlos Doin*
Summary:
The article explores some of several approaches that
the question of trauma has received in psychoanalytic
literature, including its links with the repetition
compulsion, narcissism, perversion and transference,
among others. Paradoxes of traumatophilia are presented
in relation to their origins and developments.
Contributions of neurosciences are added to certain
psychoanalytic views of the problem. Some technical
difficulties found in the analyses of these cases
are commented on, as well as some possible limits
to the therapeutic action on both sides, the patient’s
and the analyst’s. Some points are illustrated
with clinical vignettes.

perspective to what he considers as the essence of

upon the theoretical approaches of Freud, Klein, Winnicott
and Bion, along with categories or notions such as
pulsion investment, its internal and external depictions
(phantasies), and the projective identification mechanism.

Psychoanalysis,
terror and representation
Deodato Curvo de Azambuja*
Summary:
The thread that links the groupal, the social and
the individual is the identification, one of Oedipus’s
legs. Terror personification will be found by means
of this leg. The question does not reside in the superation
of Oedipus or the identifications, but in the thought
of the myth and not only being thought by it. To be
thought only by the myth is a proficuous territory
for the terror.

Summary: Psychoanalysis
can help democratic international socialism in its
crisis. This will happen only after resolving the
crisis that affects Psychoanalysis itself today: the
emptiness of the offices; decreasing of demand of
training; fear of participating in social movements
against wars and genital mutilation of children and
adolescents. The real contribution of psychoanalysis
to the international democratic socialist movement
will start with the inter disciplinary transmission
of scientific data about the meanings of the new socio
cultural processes to the collective unconscious of
humanity.

the author returns to a theme that he had considered
many times, nowadays searching to make the systematization
that Freud and followers hadn’t made, using
the advances in the investigation of the affects,
emotions and feelings in Neuroscience of Emotions

and evolutionary views. From these points he develops
the evolutive pathway of the process of self-regulation
and the development of the cognition modulated by
feelings as the higher conquest in this process.

Rescuing
the feminine through the somatic-psychic experience:
from pain to psychical suffering
Cândida Sé Holovko*
Summary: This article
aims at punctuating a few reflections about psychosomatic
manifestations during the psychoanalytic sessions
of a female patient in relation to the integration
of some feminine aspects.
From the evolution of a psychoanalytic process, the
author tries to highlight how some somatic manifestations
of a patient may be seen as signals of a transformation
process that marks the passage of a not nominated
feminine forgotten body to a body bathed by imagination
and in better harmony with the psyche.
In this process she highlights the rescuing of the
maternal feminine as support to Femininity in an analyzand
with deep dissociation from these personality elements.

The
psychoanalytical inquiry is threatened of extinguishing?
Theodor S. Lowenkron*
Summary: I consider
that the investigation method occupies a prime position
in relation to the three senses of psychoanalysis
proposed by Freud – investigation method, form
of treatment and theory. I also consider psychoanalysis
an empiric science, remitting the representation of
the empiric, particularly, to the field of transference.
According to Cooper, the empiric research consists
of a systematic study of any phenomenon realized through
a methodology that permits some kind of statistic
analysis and that provides elements that enable others
to try to repeat the experience. Wallerstein and Green
illustrate exemplarily the polemics that this conception
of empiric research raises in psychoanalysis. Herrmann
considers that supposed empiric research in psychoanalysis
is an attempt of imitation of the positivist model
of eradication of the researcher’s interpretative
desviation, what directs this kind of search is the
fascination for quantitative experiments, which is
nothing more than a certain nostalgia of the natural
science, the desire to substitute the psychoanalytic
method for the method of quantitative verification.
Mezan however, traces two directions to the research
in psychoanalysis: the slope included in university
programs, in which the object of research is mainly
constituted by texts and the slope of the form of
production of Freud’s, Kohut’s and Green’s
psychoanalytic knowledge. The internal cohesion, the
communicability, the verificability and the cumulativity
relate psychoanalysis to the scientific formulations
and the aspects of therapeutic practice relate it
to the arts and jewelry.. Birman’s contribution
to the debate values, on one hand, the psychoanalytic
space, not for its outwardness but for the basic dimension
of the psychoanalytic process, and on another, the
interdisciplinary to the advance of the psychoanalytic
knowledge, affirming that it is the psychoanalytic
experience that defines the direction of the research
in psychoanalysis and also admits several possibilities
of clinic.
Through my research experience and the theoretic reflection
in psychoanalytic research showed, I insert myself
in this debate taking Freud’s stand: if the
experience is based on the fundamental concepts of
psychoanalysis – the unconscious, the resistance
and the transference – any line of investigation
has the right to call itself psychoanalytic. Finally,
it’s primordialy a matter of quality and not
of quantity.
Concerning psychoanalysis’ contributions for
the psychoanalytical and mental health field of progress,
it is pointed out the necessity of a revision of psychoanalysis’
definition established by International Psychoanalytical
Association (2003), which limits itself only in two
ways – theory and therapy – and disconsiders
the investigation sense, which, according to Freud,
is the first of the tree senses in psychoanalysis.
Key words: the
concept of Psychoanalysis, conceptual discussion,
critical analysis and proposal about IPA’s present
definition of psychoanalysis.

The
role of psychoanalysis in Justice: law, drugs and
treatment
Ivone Stefania Ponczek*
Summary: This work
points to the importance of dialogue between psychonalysis
and the academic world, and between psychonalysis
and other sciences, in the case juridical sciences,
emphasizing the wide field of application of the former.
Psychoanalysis, both in theory and practice, goes
beyond the walls of private consultation room, calling
attention to its social and political commitment,
promoting changes, even changes in legislation, as
it was the case of Law nº 6368, which deals with
illegal drugs.
Through the participation in several discussion forums
focused on that law, which is about to be voted by
the Senate, the author and other professionals of
the health field, including psychoanalists, were able
to discuss with jurists, politicians, and professionals
of various areas, questions concerning the treatment
of addicts of psychoactive drugs, and the correspondent
decriminalization of drug addiction. Concerning that
item, several critical remarks were made to the so-called
“therapeutic justice”, referring to clinical
and methodological problems. Other possibilities were
suggested, concerning the treatment and the approach
to drug addiction, based on psychanalysis, as it is
practiced in the Nepad - Núcleo de Estudos
e Pesquisas em Atenção ao Uso de Drogas
[Center of Studies and Research for Drug Addiction],
in the Uerj – Universidade Estadual do Rio de
Janeiro [State University of Rio de Janeiro]. The
author is the clinical coordinator and acting director
of the latter institution.

justice, law, “Therapeutic Justice”, treatment,
drug addiction.
