While Joan cannot be categorized as a mystic, it is necessary to avoid framing her within the clinical realm of psychosis or delirium. Joan of Arc embodies, rather, the possibility of another form of enjoyment, in Lacan’s terms “Other enjoyment” or “feminine enjoyment”, which challenges the phallic claim to occupy the field of jouissance. lun., 08 janv. 2024 15:35:31 +0100 jeu., 15 févr. 2024 16:52:47 +0100 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/640 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/903 Collodi’s Pinocchio can be read as a psychoanalytical novel, interpreting its characters as conceptual figures. Jacques Lacan, Melanie Klein and Donald Winnicott’s theories are considered in order to understand the psychological development of Pinocchio’s character. Particularly, this essay considers the relationship between Pinocchio and the Fairy with Turquoise Hair, suggesting that the transformation of Pinocchio from a puppet to a child is the plastic representation of an inner evolution. Pinocchio’s escapes and mischiefs should be considered as part of a peculiar dialectic, played by Pinocchio himself and the Fairy, involving desire, lack and love. This work tries to explore the libidinal dynamics of this classical novel of children’s literature. lun., 15 janv. 2024 11:39:18 +0100 mar., 13 févr. 2024 11:01:12 +0100 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/903
