A FENOMENOLOGIA DAS VIVÊNCIAS ARQUETÍPICAS ESTIMULADAS PELAS PRANCHAS DE RORSCHACH

Abstract

The aim of this research was to verify if the attributed symbolism to each of Rorschach s inkblot by the archetype theory is translated directly or through a phenomenological hermeneutic, in the experience of the examined who respond to the stimulus. With the hermeneutic, the sense of experience and the possible articulation of the Rorschach archetype hypothesis were fetched. The researches done by the American Robert McCully and the academic papers done by Professor Rodolfo Petrelli were the references used in this paper of Jungian thesis of archetypes applied to the Test. Another interpretative resource, besides the archetypes, used by the researcher was the notion of Prägnanz, from Max Wetheimer s Gestaltheory. This, identified in the experiments of Berlin School, oriented the reading to the viewing of present conditions conjuncture, very coherently with the prescription of the here and now of Gestaltherapy, searching in the elements of the present field the understanding of the experiential structure underlying the behavior and also the answers to the Rorschach stimulus. The principle of Prägnanz showed clearly the direction of configurations pointing to the future or, in other terms, to the gestalt resolution. Gestalt Psychologists refer to Prägnanz as a basic generating relation that connects in a necessary way the parts to the total organization. In the case presented in the paper, the generating relation which connects each Inkblot to the protocol totality can be identified in the theme: the affirmation of the feminine in a context of patriarchal paradigm. An itinerary that, starting in Inkblot I, closes in the last Inkblot was identified: the despised feminine that triumphs, the apology of the gender, the rescue of its ontological and social dignity. Because of the successive emergency of the case, another deduction occurred in the Examiner s spirit: one of a process being constructed during the Test submission. In practical terms, that means it s conceivable that the answers represent not only the symbolic presentification of experienced or traumatic situations, but the result organizing impulse, building up the solution.
