The idea of the infinite has its origins in the very beginnings of western philosophy and was developed significantly by modern philosophers such as Galileo and Leibniz. Freud discovered the Unconscious which does not respect the laws of classical logic, flouting its fundamental principle of non-contradiction. This opened the way to a new epistemology in which classical logic coexists with an aberrant logic of infinite affects. Matte Blanco reorganized this Freudian revolution in logic and introduced the concept of bi-logic, which is an intermingling of symmetric and Aristotelic logics. The authors explore some epistemological and clinical aspects of the functioning of the deep unconscious where the emergence of infinity threatens to overwhelm the containing function of thought, connecting this topic to some of Bion's propositions. They then suggest that bodily experiences can be considered a prime source of the logic of turmoil, and link a psychoanalytic consideration of the infinite to the mind-body relation. Emotional catastrophe is seen both as a defect-a breakdown of the unfolding function which translates unconscious material into conscious experience-and as the consequence of affective bodily pressures. These pressures function in turn as symmetrizing or infinitizing operators. Two clinical vignettes are presented to exemplify the hypotheses.
无限的概念起源于西方哲学的开端，并由伽利略和莱布尼茨等现代哲学家进一步发展。弗洛伊德发现了无意识，它并不遵循经典逻辑的规律，公然无视其不矛盾的基本原则。这为一种新的认识论开辟了道路，在这种认识论中，经典逻辑与一种关于无限情感的异常逻辑并存。马特·布兰科重新组织了这场弗洛伊德式的逻辑革命，并引入了双逻辑的概念，它是对称逻辑与亚里士多德逻辑的交织。作者们探讨了深层无意识运作的一些认识论和临床方面，在那里无限的出现有可能压倒思维的容纳功能，并将这个主题与比昂的一些观点联系起来。然后他们提出，身体体验可以被视为混乱逻辑的主要来源，并将对无限的精神分析思考与身心关系联系起来。情感灾难既被视为一种缺陷——即将无意识材料转化为有意识体验的展开功能的崩溃——也被视为情感身体压力的后果。这些压力反过来又作为对称化或无限化的算子起作用。本文呈现了两个临床案例来例证这些假设。
