- The creation of meaning during pregnancyPublication . Rosado, Filipa Bouhon Valente Rosa Falcão Borges; Marques, Maria EmíliaIn this paper, we share some initial findings from PhD research on the psychic processes of pregnancy. Our aim is to make visible the invisible work of the pregnant woman’s mind. As Tyler and Baraitser (2013) note, ‘the 1960s marked the rise of foetal celebrity, and the 1990s witnessed the breaking of a taboo on the visibility of the pregnant body’ (p. 7). But as these authors also note, ‘today pregnancy is a disciplinary ‘body project’ which women are instructed to covet and enjoy’ (p. 7). This, we believe, may be another way of rendering the subjective experience of pregnancy invisible, as it is an instruction that women are supposed to comply with. An instruction that silences the extreme, conflicting and confusing emotions that, beneath the skin, on the dark side of the womb (Raphael-Leff, 2015), pregnancy also is. We then hope to illuminate that invisible and always subjective experience, by exploring some aspects of a narrative from a woman we have called ‘Petra,’ a pregnant woman interviewed as a participant in our study.
- O balanceamento entre as posições esquizo-paranóide e depressiva (PS↔D) na psicodinâmica criativaPublication . Delgado, Luís Manuel RomanoNo presente trabalho de psicanálise extra-clínica aplicada ao estudo de objectos culturais artísticos, o autor procura mostrar a pertinência da aplicação do modelo bioniano dos elementos em psicanálise, nomeadamente o das inter-relações entre as posições esquizo-paranóide e depressiva (PS↔D) ao processo criativo artístico, isto é, a compreensão de obras artísticas modernas como o resultado da oscilação permanente entre os modos distintos de pensar/sentir dispersivo e integrativo, ilustrando com obras de vários campos artísticos: do teatro (Galileu Galilei de Brecht), da pintura (cubismo de Picasso), da literatura (Ulisses de Joyce) e da dança moderna.
