La ripetizione: tra presenza e significato
(Repetition: between presence and meaning)
Dominique Scarfone

SUMMARY

The notion of "repetition" is explored from a metapsychological point of view in relation with the specific meaning of "remembering". Distinguishing between the notions of the identical and of the same, the author suggests that whereas a preliminary stratum of analysis deals with meaning, the analytic method is eventually conducive beyond meaning, i.e. to presence.
