| Sumario: | Since its invention, despite some controversy, autism has usually been characterized as a severe damage to the bond between the autistic child and the otherness. In this work, we discuss otherness in autism by means of the concept of Other: would this subjective condition come from the absence of a relationship with the Other or from the presence of a specific bond with the Other? It seems to us that the autistic situation implies an attempt of protecting oneself from the verb, from the field of language. As a consequence, autism becomes determined by a specific bond to an invasive Other, who threatens to swallow the autistic children in its absolute jouissance. |
