Clinical and Theoretical Practices: Inventing Fictions to Make Symbiotes
By Mathilde Kiening, Thamy Ayouch
English
Beyond an analysis of the theoretical tensions that can be encountered in psychoanalysis, I propose to write new fictions, which do not ignore their heritage, but transmute it. This article, based on clinical practice and research as part of a CIFRE thesis, argues that there is a theoretical practice that is fiction open to invention. Starting from the hypothesis that the “political symbiotes” is of interest to psychoanalytic practice-theory, I will unveil the methodological entanglements (of schizo-analysis allied to diffraction) that such a supposition imply. In this way, I hope that the proposal of a theoretical fiction will carry with it a practical supposition that deals with the making of names and worlds: “political symbiote”.
