Escolarização da criança psicótica : registros do cotidiano

Abstract

This paper aimed to investigate, from daily snippets, the schooling of psychotic children, inquiring about what could propel them to knowledge and social bond. It was based on authors of psychoanalysis who follow the thoughts of Freud and Lacan. In this research, childhood psychosis is understood from the perspective of authors such as Bernadino (2000), who consider it as an undecided structure. In the Introduction, it was situated the importance of the children psychosis issue, in the context of education, from the perspective of inclusion, emphasizing teacher’s difficulties when faced with a psychotic child. In the second chapter, it was developed the concept of psychosis, highlighting its particularities and proposing a brief discussion about the diagnosis of childhood psychosis in psychiatry and psychoanalysis. Furthermore, it was also discussed about knowledge in psychosis coursing through the concept of Lacan (1987) about paranoid knowledge and Kupfer’s (2000) concept of islands of intelligence. In the last part, it was analyzed childhood psychosis and the social bond issue, bringing to discussion the difficulty of these subjects in inserting themselves into social bond. For this dissertation, it was used the psychoanalytic method of research, aiming as object of investigation the listening of the signifiers which surround the school environment, proposing a metapsychological rehearsal built from the articulation between theory and listening along four years of school experience. In order to build the metapsychological rehearsal, some snippets of school scenes were done, which allowed the identification of signifiers that surround the social bond and knowledge. Regarding the social bond, it was possible to listen to some signifiers around the students named as “strange” but who, in turn, search for ways of participating in the social activities the school offers. In this regard, it was possible to anchor the discussion with the study of Freud’s (1919/1996) (un)heimlich term. Signifiers which point to the knowledge in psychosis were also identified. Therefore, some results led to think of islands of intelligence and learning possibilities, even if in a different way, since the subject can reconstruct into themselves the knowledge of the others. It was also possible to ponder the transference and the place of the teacher as a way of providing knowledge and social bond. In conclusion, it was considered the place of the school and the teacher towards these children, regarding the possibilities and limits about the inclusion of these subjects
