[Anthropophobia: psychopathological approach to the interactions between body, inter-subjectivity and language].

Anthropophobia is the general term often taken as an equivalent to social phobia which comprises the several afflictions known in Europe under names like autodysosmophobia, scopophobia, erythrophobia, and olfactory reference syndrome, among others. Following a general introduction to anthropophobia, we will use three short observations to illustrate a phenomenological approach which shows both the confusion between the two dimensions of corpority and intersubjectivity and the specific relations joining body and language that are characteristic of this pathology. In addition to that, a psychoanalytical insight shows that anthropophobic patients possess traits that are specific to the intrusion complex and that reveal an evolutionary stage between narcissism and Oedipian phases.
