Resumo

Neste trabalho, o autor retoma a noção de trauma em Freud e em outros pensadores contemporâneos, mostrando como surge na clínica, através da transferência. Utilizando-se das idéias de Bion sobre o Pensar, Brown expõe seu ponto de vista de que um trauma psicológico intenso tem o efeito de reverter a função alfa, levando à formação de uma tela beta rigidamente organizada, condenado o paciente a repetições de funcionamento que o impedem de aprender com a experiência. O artigo é ilustrado com um relato clínico que exemplifica a teoria exposta, acompanhado de uma detalhada discussão, concluindo que o trabalho analítico pode redirecionar o significado inconsciente que o trauma provoca no paciente.
