Abstract

This paper, which refers to psychoanalysis and anthropology, is devoted to the clinical impact of suffering to get old on foreign earth, at the junction of singularity and culture, on psychic and social sides. It presents some elements on: the discontentment or even the misery of those called foreign workers and who, however, live more and more their retirement and their old age far from the world which contains their language and their culture; the necessity of a redevelopment of settings for listening, when confronted to a suffering whose expressive forms exceed the logic underlying the classical conceptual frames, and disturbs the social and caregiver professionals. This approach leaves place, at first, to the subjective resonance of exile without which one cannot understand what old subjects have to pass through. This exile, which cannot be reduced to emigration, and which sometimes is again actualized with violence during the passage to retirement and aging, reminds to each one his incompleteness and mortality. It disturbs the self-feeling and the relation to others, which require to pass by cultural references to feel being protected and humanized. Listening, to be efficient, should not break or emphasize their difference, but has to be attentive to the peculiar link which connects him to its culture; link which allows him to give sense in every decisive moment of existence.

[在异国他乡老去:更多的流亡之苦]。
本文运用精神分析学和人类学的方法,在异域大地上,从奇点与文化的交汇处,从心理和社会的角度,探讨老年之苦的临床影响。它提出了一些因素:那些被称为外国工人的不满甚至痛苦,然而,他们越来越远离包含他们的语言和文化的世界,他们的退休和老年生活;当面对一种超越经典概念框架的表达形式的痛苦,并扰乱社会和护理专业人员时,重新建立倾听环境的必要性。这种方法首先留给了流放的主观共鸣,没有这种共鸣,人们就无法理解旧的主体必须经历什么。这种流放,不能被简化为移民,有时在走向退休和衰老的过程中再次以暴力实现,提醒每个人他的不完整和死亡。它扰乱了自我感觉和与他人的关系,这需要通过文化参照来感受被保护和人性化。要想有效地倾听,就不应该打破或强调他们之间的差异,而必须注意将他与他们的文化联系起来的特殊联系;这种联系让他在每一个决定性的时刻都有自己的感觉。
