The name of the Piggle: Reconsidering Winnicott's classic case in light of some conversations with the adult 'Gabrielle'.
نویسنده
چکیده
On the 40th anniversary of its publication, the author re-reads Winnicott's The Piggle - a case of 'on demand analysis' with a child suffering from psychotic night terrors - in light of new information about the patient. Conversations between the author and 'Gabrielle' explore two areas not regarded as priorities by Winnicott: the transgenerational transmission of pathology/trauma, and the ways that language, in general - and given names, in particular - organize individual subjectivity. The question raised is to what degree Winnicott - who described the treatment as "psychoanalysis partagé [shared]" due to the parents' involvement - thought of the pathology itself as 'shared.' The goal is not to supplant but to expand Winnicott's understanding of the case, borrowing insights from the work of Lacan and others.

If we ignore the second constraint, ca...
