Roland GORI is Psychanalyste in Marseilles and Professor of psychology and psychopathology private clinics at the university of Aix-Marseilles 1. he is the author of many works of psychoanalysis.

The word and the language have an essential place in its writing and its teaching. Its work is deeply centered on and by the psychoanalytical speech in a reference authentically freudienne. In Logic of passions, Roland Gori written " speeches which live the human one we let us have only the words to find a lost world or which we never had. And under the words, there are still other words, and under the other words of other words still… "

Very committed in the current debates he is opposed to the drifts scientism in psychiatry and the instrumentalisation of the human one. For that he pleads " for sciences still humaines" (cf an interview on http://www.psychanalyse-en-debats.com)

thus written it in a very recent article the novlangue of psychopathology today " Fault of calling into question the autoproclamé capacity of the expertise and the generalized evaluation, the mental health would become again a branch of the public health from which psychiatry is resulting. It would be thus reduced with a device biopolitic of recombining of our sensitivities psychological and social in which we all would become of exclude potential inside the city. Such a device would risk in the name of “science”, somewhat abused, to be made the simple alibi of a sovereign capacity on what Giorgio Agamben names “the naked life” of excluded. When the life and the policy are identified, the risk is great to see developing these totalitarianisms which make “biological” this fate in the name of which the political decisions are re-coded like “natural” standards. We should not forget that our decisions do not concern any naturality but almost always proceed of acts and words whose our humanité." emerges;

More: three chapters follow on its course of research, a bibliography with accompanying notes and elements on its institutional responsibilities.

A) The work of R. Gori, the psychoanalysis and the university

While following the ways of its work, three periods are distinguished

From 1969 to 1983: The act of speech

As of its first the work, supported by Didier ANZIEU (Anzieu which will be its reader), the question of the act of speech is put in order to circumscribe its place and its function of it. The language and the speech are the fundamental axes, as well on the theoretical level as methodological, to question the unconscious truth which speaks the subject.

With what is interested Roland GORI? Probably so that the speeches produce in their stating, how they structure the subject, while veiling and revealing the unconscious desires. The speech EAST the thought in so far as one reads that in the light of the method freudienne associations " libres". Thus the psychoanalysis freudienne seems at the same time the theoretical corpus suitable to conceptualize that, but also as the method which brings into play in the analytical cure by confrontation at the sufferings, these same concepts then incarnated. Thus T it has undertaken an epistemological reflection on the reports/ratios of “worrying familiarity” between the clinic psychology and the psychoanalysis.

Questions are then in germs which one can condense as follows: Which is the architecture of the words assembled in speech, how to return account by the words of unconscious and of its effects in us, which theorization makes it possible to release the language of its reduction to the communication, how to give an account of the transfer by the play of the addressed words? Sums us dependant on the language at the point of him owe the illusion of our being? and which sufferings don't level they not in the words and the complaints, at the point to try in the site of the analytical cure to analyze contours and the labyrinths of them? with which university rigor can one write or say these words under the words and the transfer?

Concepts emerge then like: the body and the code in bond with the article of Didier ANZIEU, but also a proximity of with the texts of WINNICOTT.

" like an account of dream… "

from 1983 to 2000 The powerful model of the analysis of the dreams such as Freud proposed it since 1900 becomes then a source even major. Roland GORI consequently gets busy to propose an analysis of the speeches of suffering of the patients known as “somatic” (remotely of any claim causalist and the psychosomatic one) but in the methodological regulation freudienne, in order to regard any account of complaint as an account of dream! He will insist thus in his central work the proof by the word on concepts like that of " novel of the maladie" closely related to that of the " novel familial" freudien, or on the concept of " kindness somatique" …

" Like an account of rêve" this central formula combines at the same time a theoretical rigor and proposals for a research. That means that before engulfing itself in the effects of significance, one to say, of a narration, a symptomatology it is analytically speaking more interesting to regard these fragments as ends of accounts of dreams (and by there the distinctions between day's residues and unconscious infantile desires)….there in this point is not the promise of a rigor for the psychoanalysis…

The most current sets of themes

From 2000 to 2007

Memory and memory From the questions about the analysis of the act of speech Roland GORI will carry out (in bond with the lesson freudiens) the Development of a psychopathological model of the remote memory of the memory. This memory it describes it as follows: it " be brought up to date in the words and the phonemes of the speech, and tends to make thought a handling of signes". In this direction it joined the Lacaniens statements of the logic of meaning as much as work and certain proposals of pragmatic of the language

The logic of passions.

As it indicates it sometimes him even passion impassions Roland GORI and it is consequently logically that it approaches the private clinic of the passion phenomenon, in order to give an account of the genesis, the function and the structure of passions.

For GORI the passion phenomenon remains subjected to the logic of the unconscious one. passion is according to him " a state produced by the poetic one of the language, ambiguities of the word and by a kind of disease of the language which is essential with the favor of a relentless seduction intersubjective".

Epistemology and rationality of the psychoanalysis.

Through many texts on the conceptual rigor of the theory freudienne, and the setting in critical prospect for scientism it will propose a study of the ideologies and rationalities scientific of which the point of connection with FOUCAULT or CANGUILHEM abounds. In the same movement the digging of the furrow of the clean rationality of a research in clinical psychopathology referred to the psychoanalysis is continued and deepened and in particular in collaboration with Christian HOFFMANN in their work " science with the risk of the psychanalyse".

Against the empires

The most recent work proceeds of an engagement and an ardor against The medicalisation of the existence (in collaboration with Marie-josé LED VOLGO), médico-economic civilization or empire of the coaches (in collaboration with stone the COZ). These last works written in collaboration with other authors (see bibliography will infra) insist on a critical mode and in a rigorous way on the ideological devastations that scientistic logics as much as liberal produce near the citizens which one denies the statute of subjects by plastering them with the row of individual statistics or specimens of " the espèce" ….

B) Aspects of the bibliography

the very significant number of articles will be specified in the later versions just as will develop fuller notes of reading)

Gori R., Coz P., 2006, Empire of the coaches a new form of contrÙle social. Paris: Albin Michel. It is about the most recent work whose accent criticizes does not yield it of nothing to the rigor in `analyzes speeches. The néo-liberal ideology is readable here in its reduction project of the subject to the contractor of its own existence thought in terms of investment and profitability, but whereas becomes the unconscious one, psychic sufferings and the poetic one of the subject

Caverni J.P., Gori R., 2006, (collective work under dir it. of) the assent new Patient's right or imposture? Paris: In Near.

Gori R., Del Volgo M.J., 2005, totalitarian health Test on the medicalisation of the existence. Paris: Denoël. Work near to the thought of Foucault, prompt to analyze the drifts of an order of the speeches which in the name of the good of the individual hollow out and exhaust the subject and its search for direction in the sufferings. This work prolongs at the same time the work of Mrs. Del Volgo over the moment to say and those of GORI in the proof by the word

Closes Y., Gori R., 2003, Catachrèse: praise of the diversion. Nancy: PUN, 27-50.

Gori R., 2002, Logic of passions, Paris: Denoël. (Translated into Portuguese and Italian, translation in progress in Russian), Flammarion-Pocket, 2006. Probably the most clinical and singular work, around a language it even impassioned and very free in its outward journey and return between private clinic and theory. Passion and hatred there are bound and untied in their effects of abyss and losses for the subject in suffering.

Gori R., Hoffmann CH., 1999, science with the risk of the psychoanalysis. Toulouse: Eras. Structured as a partition with four hands this entrelac of articles of the two authors delivers by successive keys a panorama of what scientism in its variation with rationality leads to inquisitorial judgments. Conceived like an answer to the polemic of Sokal and Brickmont the work present in mosaic of the articles essential but always attached to, proof by the word. One will read there a decisive article and of great audience: the dream does not exist which centres the analytical rigor on the movement of stating of the word. Thus is there no dream to analyze apart from the account which gives it to understand, which account is addressed during the meeting on the tranferential axis to the analyst. It is less with the contents of saying than for its purposes of address than the psychoanalytical private clinic would have to make…

Gori R., 2001, the proof by the word On causality in psychoanalysis. Paris: puf, 1996. Translation: 1998, have prova peeled fala sober has causalidade EM psicanalise. Escuta (Sao Paulo) and Universita Catolica de Goias (Goiania) (translated into Portuguese by Mirian Giannella). Probably the most complete work and major from a psychoanalytical and epistemological point of view. The speech, the word is presented there as surdéterminés in the device of interlocution which reveals them as much as it creates them. The psychoanalysis produces a site which secret in the interlocution a word transférentiellement addressed; there its value as much as its limit, its rigor and its possible resides. The statute of the speech and the rigor of the psychoanalysis are explored here with a richness of references which make of it the keystone work of GORI, the preceding books find there their point of balance and of enrichment, the following draws their conceptual frame there

For the theses of Doctorate a heading will come soon to specify their places in this unit

C) The institutional and leading course

The university and institutional course of Roland GORI is complex, therefore it will be developed in later enrichments of this heading.
