Um-equívoco sempre possível

Abstract

This research aims a representation of the notion of mistake in language, giving an emphasis in the singular characteristic of the mistaken element. In this sense, its approach implicates an intersection between linguistic and psychoanalysis, constituting, thus, a corpus which in the ordinary language exposes the language to the dimension of the no-identical, in which the saying is produced by the failure; thus, the homonyms, the lapses, the double senses represent extracts of the language which do not recover the universality of the identical and of the repeatable. This dimension of the language is represented, therefore by a topology which breaks with our geometrical certainties of what is inside and outside the language. Space and time become others, evidencing in the enunciation the impossibility of reduction of the singularity of a mistake. The research is divided in two parts. The first part is constituted of three chapters, with the intention to present the theoretical field, the rupture of paradigms and the aim of investigation. The second part is constituted of five chapters which aim to develop the dimension of a mistake. Our conclusions point out to the relevance of thinking the singular when the Universal does not support any more the exigencies of a knowledge, above all, in the dominion of human sciences, particularly, when the language touches the unconscious.
