Both sciences agree that receptivity differs from passivity, but they have developed different conceptualizations about the very nature of the rudimentary \"ego-activity\" which is the source of receptivity. In phenomenological terms, \"pre-predicative\" experience roots in a primary presence and openness of the ego towards the world, whilst psychoanalysis has emphasized the role of projective and introjective processes which are close to bodily experiences and unconscious phantasy. The second part of the paper draws some conclusions concerning the analytic situation, in particular the shift among receptivity, empathy, curiosity and creative imagination as central features of the analytic attitude from a mainly Kleinian point of view. The paper argues that receptivity is a field where phenomenological and psychoanalytic approaches can mutually enrich and learn from each other.</p>","PeriodicalId":48022,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Psychoanalysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71414761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Brown begins to discuss his work entitled “ On Psychic Flatness ” . He describes two kinds of “ psychic fl atness ” : the concreteness shown by patients with Asperger disease (a condition included in autism spectrum disorders, ASD) and that presented by patients with psychosomatic disorders. Brown highlights how both conditions, usually not considered related, and even in their mutual di ff erences, show disturbances of the representative capacity and in the emotional experience, with a dulling of emotions. These patients reveal an inability in the comprehension of the emotional experience and, in addition and accordingly, concrete thinking. This element of concreteness is common to apparently unrelated clinical situations, yet the common element is the imprisonment of the concrete patient, who, as expressed by Brown, “ casts a shadow of narrow meaning across all experience ” . In the primary relationship of the future ASD child, there is the experience of a premature tearing of the infant from the mother: this emotionally over-loads the child and, despite attempts, overwhelms him or her, thereby determining a fl atness of the infantile psyche with the feeling of being alone and threatened in a dangerous world. Brown underlines the importance of living an emotionally meaningful life, of developing the ability to represent emotional experience. When this representative function does not develop su ffi ciently, one is left in a fl at world of literal facts, limited in the capacity of psychic growth. This psychic situation determines what André Green calls “ hypercathexis of the factual and of reality ” , as it is possible to observe in psychosomatic patients and, according to what Brown adds, also in ASD patients. In keeping with Freud ’ s thought, there is a “ puzzling leap ” in the transformation of a somatic stimulus in psychic experience. Green introduces the concept of a somato-psychic frontier, where","PeriodicalId":48022,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Psychoanalysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71414754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
