Foreword

Reflection on the notion of language as a primordial locus of power is as old as speech itself as attested by the emblematic “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” or, some millennia later, Aristotle’s Rhetoric (4th century BC), possibly the earliest ‘academic’ text on the subject of persuasion. In a leap forward to more contemporaneous times and concerns, works such as Fowler et al.’s Language and Control (1979), and Fairclough’s Language and Power (..

Foreword

The abundant scientific literature that resulted from studies in the thematic area of tourism and development is now being fundamentally renewed by the recent mobilization of the notion of “resource”.

Psychoanalytical playing: psychoanalysis of the process of artistic creation in the work of Patrick Corillon

The article presents the "psychoanalytical playing" method used as a part of a project inspired by psychoanalysis set in place by the writer collaborating with the contemporary artist Patrick Corillon, for the purpose of clarifying the process of artistic creation in the artist's work. This method is based on the Winnicottian view of the psychoanalytical session as play, occurring in the overlap of two potential spaces of playing. While it is a part of the artist's creative process, "psychoanalytical playing" has certain features in common with conventional psychoanalysis, although it also differs in many other respects. The material provided by this methodological device, along with a study of Patrick Corillon's work, led the author to advance the hypothesis of a fantasy of immortality operating as the "driving force" of the artist's creative process, and to detect the traces of an unconscious immortal Ego, as formulated by André Green in his book "Life Narcissism Death Narcissism" (2001)
