ABSTRACT:
Based on the observation of everyday contradictions and their reception in classical logic, where they are not admitted, this theoretical work interrogates, together with other fields, linguistic phenomena considered undesirable and disposable in descriptions and analyses. The discussion recognizes in Paraconsistent Logic important advances for the approach of contradictions in logical systems. At the Language Clinic, stumbling blocks and embarrassments are treated as relevant subjectivity data for theoretical-clinical elaborations; there we find contributions to discuss the contradiction in Psychoanalysis. It remains to be said that the interest in the question stems from Freud’s assertion that psychic life is made up of contradictions.
