Manic-Depressive Psychosis and Psychoanalysis
Toboul, Bernard
Manic-Depressive Psychosis and Psychoanalysis - 2013.
78
The analytic investigation of manic-depressive psychosis began with the description by Kraepelin (Abraham, 1912). In his key paper “Mourning and Melancholy,” Freud formulated its structure. Melanie Klein’s findings were a continuation of Karl Abraham’s works on the destructive-cannibalistic approach to the object. Lacan drew inferences of this “exemplary” illness: an extreme status of the object and a ruinous jouissance. Analytic treatment thus turns patients toward another real, one other than the shadow.
