N1 - 97 N2 - The classical anthropological problem of “magic thought” has traditionally been understood within the framework of “the savage mind.” At the same time, the symbolic function was being reduced to a classifying function, the foreclosing the unconscious. Yet under a resolutely poststructuralist influence, two major psychoanalytical responses stand out, both articulated with the category of the Real: those of Lacan and Deleuze/Guattari, who reconsider psychosis through a reflection on artists and their work (Artaud and Joyce). Indeed, with schizoanalysis and notions such as lalangue or jouissance, the problematic blurring of the shamanic and the psychoanalytic causes can be investigated; furthermore, regarding the psychoanalyst’s praxis, a new relation to capitalism appears. Lacan foreshadowed it in his 1969 Foucault-inspired witticism: “the structures have taken to the streets.” It still remains to think and to create the nonstructural conceptual tools that such an event requires UR - https://shs.cairn.info/journal-cliniques-mediterraneennes-2012-1-page-103?lang=en&redirect-ssocas=7080 ER -
