The infantile is to poetically inhabit the world

Abstract

The infantile, contrary to anything one might think, is a serious matter. Its configuration at constitutive times will bear de marks on which the knot will be held. Very early Freud related the unconscious to the infantile and this has led him to confirm again and again how the infantile presented itself in the modalities of satisfaction. The reason is the satisfaction for the parletre will always be perverse and polymorphous due to its dependence on the partiality of the drive. The infantile also refers to the relationship with the body, a body affected by lalangue. The mumbling, the words, the songs that resonated, the poetics that inhabit childhood and configures the infantile are some of the biases that we are going to explore. We will take “playing” as that political and instituting gesture of the infantile.
