| What is the point of view of a
link psychoanalyst regarding the
parent-child link? What gives this perspective its specific
nature? What
makes it distinctive from other discourses, from other
clinical approaches?
Psychoanalysis stated hypotheses explaining how human
psyche, the inner
world of an individual, is built. From the intersubjectivity,
the question is about
the unforeseeable that brings about the other individual
with their presence.
The parent-child link is thus defined as the link of
Hospitality. “Hospitality
belongs originally neither to the host nor to the guest,
but to the gesture
through which they welcome each other”.
The author reflects about this link without emphasizing
the places and
functions of the kinship, but from the new experience
that the meeting
proposes.
