Fuerzas de destino: Psicoanálisis y e idioma humano

by Christopher Bollas

El concepto que usa Bollas para especificar los sucederes de la sesión de análisis y aún la condición humana como tal es el de “propio-ser genuino” [self] de Winnicott, fruto de experiencias y, por lo tanto, con una historia. Existe una apetencia de formular ese propio-ser genuino, que el autor denomina “impulso de destino”. Bollas estudia con fineza la dialéctica de los tiempos y la reconceptualiza introduciendo un distingo entre hado y destino. La persona que está enferma y llega al análisis puede ser vista como cautiva de un el síntoma clásico es una suerte de oráculo a descifrar. Pero junto con el hado hay un destino potencial cuya actualización dependerá del movimiento hacia el futuro a través del uso del objeto, un desarrollo que los psicoanalistas denominan trasferencia. Contenido de una narrativa y lógica de trato con el otro, interpretación de la trasferencia aquí y ahora y recurso a la historia, deconstrucción analítica y proceso he ahí polaridades que Bollas propone dialectizar para que no quedemos atrapados en alguno de sus términos.

Great piece of psychoanalytic literature hence I’ll give it 5 stars. But, for all of the psychologists interested in reading this, but not that interested in psychoanalysis or are just at the beginning of their psychoanalytic studies, skip this one for now. From my experience, it will only give you an enormous headache, you will suffer while reading it because you don’t understand half of the words mentioned, maybe even get a nervous breakdown. I am very satisfied for reading it, because now I have no doubt that I will never in my life practice psychoanalysis.

I only had the patience to finish the first part of this book. Bollas’ ideas are interesting and important, but his writing style is difficult. He admits this is the case in the introduction: “Although a reader who is accustomed to a more scientific presentation of psychoanalytic work may be put off by my presentation, I hope that upon concluding the final chapter he or she will see why I express myself as I do. I intend my writing to express something of the nature of psychoanalytic experience, which must surely be a new form of being. Perhaps we have not yet fully established a prose form to write of psychoanalytic experience, although Freud’s Interpretation of Dreams is a model of what such prose can be.” I’m incredibly intrigued by his words here, and so I hope to return to this book one day. I’m just not at a place in which I can experience this right now.

Thxs is, i think, the first time i’ve read the reviews of other readers and found myself surprised at what i read, but yes, i think psychoanalisis is not for everyone, Mor Bollas is Amor easy author, i’t a Home diferentes Way to arrive deep in the vote of human psyche trough the river of pshycoanalitic theories. Every reader has a very peculiar interpretación of what’s read, so every book is subject to a very different reaction… my reaction to forces of destiny was definitely an absorbing, deep and hungry reaction to every word. I completely understand that reading Bollas is not for everybody.

💡Christopher Bollas è uno degli studiosi più significativi ed importanti della ricerca psicoanalitica contemporanea. In "Le Forze del destino" , edito @cortinaeditore , esamina la particolare natura dell’esperienza psicoanalitica, cercando di dare risposta a due fondamentali interrogativi dell’uomo: cosa c’è di unico in ognuno di noi? Come si manifesta questa unicità nella personalità, nella vita, nelle relazioni e nel processo psicoanalitico?

🔥In questo testo, elabora un'analisi del "Vero Sé" partendo dal concetto di “pulsione del destino”. Questa pulsione è descritta come una spinta presente in ciascuno di noi a sviluppare, articolare ed elaborare il proprio "idioma", cioè il nucleo più misterioso e introspettivo della propria personalità.

👶🏻 Secondo Bollas, la propria unicità, nonché il "Vero Sé", è ciò che si costruisce e si realizza attraverso l’esperienza che, fin dalla nascita, si fa con la propria figura di accudimento principale ma anche con tutto ciò che viene generato dalle pulsioni esercitate dal destino. L'individuo, quindi, cerca di arrivare alla propria vera essenza districandosi tra l'esperienza materna, le pulsioni del destino ed il vero proprio potenziale.

✨Vi siete mai chiesti se ciò che siete è solo frutto della vostra esperienza o se state solo compiendo il vostro destino?

📚Sappiamo bene che non sono concetti facili e che non è una lettura adatta a tutti, ma la proponiamo perché vogliamo che arrivi a psicologi, analisti e psicoterapeuti interessati all'argomento!

Lost my patience with it and only read it in part.. Felt like the substance of the book - exploring the individual's destiny as an unfolding of a personal idiom, as opposed to mere fatedness - got lost in an incredibly annoying writing style and a dense forest of psychoanalytic formulations... Not what I was hoping for, although there were a few potentially fascinating psychoanalytic anecdotes.

Indispensable. My favorite Bollas.
