Abstract:
The metapsychology of psychic borders. The metapsychology of psychic borders can be defined as a part of the psychoanalysis which aims to understand the organization and the operation of the psychic borders; and also as a part of the psychoanalytical theory which aims to understand the etiology, operation and treatment of borderline pathologies. The aim of this paper is to present an articulation between the ideas of Freud, Winnicott, Green and Brusset. This allowed us to construct an etiology hypothesis which places this condition within the narcissistic neuroses, however, differentiates it from melancholy. We also examined the topic consequences of this hypothesis, seeking to contribute to the field of metapsychology of psychic borders.
