Ferenczi and the constitution of the forms of expression

Abstract

Throughout his work, Sándor Ferenczi concerns himself with the dimension of the body in the psychoanalytic experience, framing it predominantly from the point of view of expression. This paper presents a reading, based on his theory, on the constitution of multiple modes of expression. To do so, we propose six ideas organized in two parallel and complementary series: the first involves the notions of omnipotence, catastrophe, and regression; the second groups the ideas of condition, adaptation, and complexification.

Keywords:
Ferenczi; expression; body; psychoanalysis
