Por uma pedagogia do cuidado: contribuições de Ferenczi e Winnicott para a educação

Abstract

This doctoral thesis aims at situating the contributions of psychoanalytical ethics of care to education. The theoretical-clinical framework developed by Sándor Ferenczi and significantly expanded by Donald W. Winnicott is called ethics of care. As methodology, we use fragments of autobiographical accounts of the author of the research himself, as well as brief passages related to his professional experience acquired in the pedagogical field. It is, therefore, a first-person narrative style, inspired by the literary movement that became known as ‘autofiction’ (Doubrovsky, 1977). The scope of the work falls within the sphere of applied psychoanalysis or extended clinical practice. Thus, the historicalsocial meaning of psychoanalytic theory is rescued, crossed by the critical perspective of school psychology, which highlights the context in which a certain individual or institution is located. The main goal is to present to the lay public, especially to education professionals, the fundamental assumptions of the psychoanalysis of care. To this end, the use of clear language pertinent to the educational universe is prioritized. In view of these aspects, we do not propose a technical model of intervention, but a transforming action is suggested based on the reflections launched and, on the reports, shared
