“…The effects of the imaginary dialectization of signs correspond with what Maleval (2021) describes as the “thawing of the master signifier” in autism (p. 176). Recall that master signifiers have an important role in organizing the libidinal economy of the subject.…”

“…Recall that master signifiers have an important role in organizing the libidinal economy of the subject. Accordingly, Maleval (2021) argues that a “retained” alienation in autism blocks the operationality of the master signifier and thus freezes the subject’s affective life (p. 78). In comparison, I argue that, rather than “thawing” and reinstating the master signifier, the dialectization of signs offers a substitute for its libidinal function.…”

“…For instance, Maleval (2018) argues that autistic subjects do have a passive and reduced mode of access to the domain of signifiers in addition to their recourse to the sign. He adds that some autistic subjects develop an expressive language that can progressively “mobilize the signifier” (Maleval, 2021, p. 182). The autistic dialectized sign might indeed personify a mode of reduced access to the functions of the signifier.…”

Abnormalities in language and speech development are a defining feature of autism. Several psychoanalysts have hypothesized that these abnormalities originate in a unique mode of access to language that exclusively relies on signs rather than signifiers. Compared to the flexibility and dynamism of a language made of signifiers, a language made of signs is rigid, cumbersome, and poor in its capacity to encode complex concepts. This article investigates the supplementary methods that autistic subjects adopt to compensate for these setbacks, methods that enable them to encode complex concepts into their vocabulary using iconic signs. These methods are then developed into a psychoanalytic theory on the use of iconic signs in the strengthening of autistic language in the context of art therapy. A variety of case studies are then used to illustrate how newly gained access to a level of conceptual complexity can also bring dramatic changes to their lives.

“…O estudo clássico de Bettelheim (2008) apontou a existência dessas fronteiras criadas por muitos autistas, objetivando estabelecer uma zona de contato com outras pessoas. Essas bordas protetoras, evidentes na descrição clássica do autismo kanneriano, são analisadas no presente texto, com base nas contribuições dos psicanalistas Jean-Claude Maleval (2003Maleval ( , 2007Maleval ( , 2009Maleval ( , 2010Maleval ( , 2011Maleval ( , 2012 e Eric Laurent (2010), que reforçam o fato que as bordas de proteção são dinâmicas e podem se desdobrar na clínica do autismo em objetos autísticos, duplos e ilhas de competência. Além da função protetora, aborda-se a importância do investimento sobre essas bordas como modo de localização do gozo, delimitando bordas que podem ser deslocadas e expandidas, alicerçando estratégias de (auto) tratamento do autista.…”
