Le contingentement de la jouissance dans la paraphrénie

At 1913, in the eight edition of its Treatise, E. Kraepelin changed its own classification of chronics delirium because he wanted to insert in it the group of paraphrenias; at 1978, H. Ey, in its Treatise of hallucinations, showed that he had conserved some interest for this clinical type that he named delirious fantastic psychosis. At 1996, J.-C. Maleval introduced a progressive logic of delirium where paraphrenia appears as the end of therapeutic work of delirium. We study more precisely here the case of a paraphrene subject who had one's moment of glory at 1905 in Paris where he was the object of a hoax played by J. Romain: J.-P. Brisset was elected prince of thinkers. In this example, the evolution of paraphrenic delirium preserves the subject from the “jouissance de l'Autre”.
