Orientador: Gustavo Henrique Dionisio / Banca: Abílio da Costa Rosa / Banca: Ivans Ramos Estevão / Resumo: Seguindo a perspectiva da teoria psicanalítica de Freud e Lacan, este trabalho discorre sobre a musicalidade e suas implicações na constituição psíquica do sujeito, considerando as peculiaridades acerca da dinâmica psíquica que ocorre no autismo e na psicose, demonstrando a possibilidade de fazer laço social. Segundo nossos desdobramentos, a musicalidade mantém em si a relação primordial do significante que não foraclui o Real, evidenciando um processo de encadeamento significante ainda anterior à produção de significação imaginária. Neste sentido, Lalangue e Sinthoma, sendo produções de relação significante do sujeito que mantêm em si a elementaridade do Real, demonstram uma via de intervenção pela via da musicalidade para a produção de um discurso sonoro, mesmo que sem significação, mas que faça mediação ao laço social. Nos sujeitos que não foracluem o Real, a via de evanescência do sujeito não está entre os significantes, e sim na dimensão do ato, do non sens que traz a marca do corpo Real através da enunciação, mesmo que sem fala. A essa condição de o sujeito evanescer no ato que evidencia o Real do significante, denominamos faz(s)er, como alternativa ao falasser do sujeito falante. Nossas discussões apontam que por meio da intervenção da musicalidade sobre Lalangue e Sinthoma é possível a constituição de um faz(s)er do sujeito como produção de significantes no Real que atuam como discurso de enunciação, não só fazendo laço social mas também legitimando ...

According to our findings, one could say that musicality maintains, in itself, the primordial relation of the signifier that does not denies (Verwerfung) the Real, evidencing a process of significant chaining even before the production of imaginary signification. In this sense, Lalangue and Sinthome, productions of significant relation of the subject that maintain in themselves the elementarity of the Real, demonstrate a way of intervention through musicality for the production of a sound discourse, even if without meaning but with mediation to the social bond. At this subjects who do not deny (Verwerfung) the Real, the way of their "evanescence" is not between the signifiers, but on the dimension of the act, the non-sens that brings the mark of the Real body through enunciation, even without speech. For this condition, we should call "faz(s)er" ("d(t)o be"), as an alternative to the parlêtre of the speaking subject. Our discussion tries to show that through the intervention of musicality on Lalangue and Sinthome it is possible to constitute a d(t)o be of the subject as a production of signifiers that acts as a discourse of enunciation, not only making a social link but also l...

Text in Afrikaans / The Gestalt Play Therapeutic approach is used as contextual frame in this research where-in music is applied as an aid for the aggressive emotions of the primary learner. Emotional and behavioral problems in children in primary and secondary schools and even in pre-primary schools, are assuming alarming proportions. From the holistic approach of the Gestalt theory, it has an influence on the development of areas such as the emotional, physical, cognitive and social in the phase of middle childhood. There is a lack of research findings on the effect of music during support to the aggressive primary learner within a Gestalt Play Therapeutic frame. The experimental single system design was used as research method as part of the quantitative investigation. The conclusion is that music was used successfully in the handling of rage and aggressive emotions in the group of child respondents within the context of the Gestalt approach. / Social Work / M.Diac.

The films of David Lynch are full of ambiguities that derive from his habitual distortion of time, inversion of characters, and creation of ironic, dreamlike worlds that are mired in crisis. While these ambiguities have been explored from numerous angles, scholars have only recently begun to closely examine music's role in Lynch's cinematic imagination. This dissertation explores the relationship between music and fantasy through the lens of Lacanian psychoanalysis where fantasy plays a crucial role in helping psychoanalytical subjects work through their psychical crises. In particular, I look at Blue Velvet (1986), Lost Highway (1996), and Mulholland Drive (2001), showing how Lynch employs music to manage and, in the case of Mulholland Drive, move beyond the particular crises of jouissance experienced by the Characters--and also the viewers. Before engaging in my analysis of Lynch's film music, however, I begin with an extended discussion of what Kevin Korsyn describes as the current crisis of music scholarship, examining how this crisis manifests itself in recent "postmodern" interpretations of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. Few works are invested with as much cultural capital as this one and arguably the discourse around it exhibits the crisis more acutely than any other. Korsyn restricts his analysis to the fields of musicology and music theory, but I approach the crisis of music scholarship obliquely, through my Lacanian reading of Lynch's film music. This dissertation, then, has two goals. On one hand it attempts to examine music's role in Lynch's films, and on the other, it explores how Lynch's use of music might aid us in navigating and moving beyond the institutional crises of music scholarship. This Lynchian solution to our crisis provides a glimpse of what might lie beyond postmodernism, a new philosophical movement some are calling the "New Sincerity." This term covers several loosely related cultural or philosophical movements that have followed in the wake of postmodernism, the most notable being what Raoul Eshelman and Judith Butler refer to as "performatism." Finally, I return to Beethoven's Ninth to offer a second, performative reading, demonstrating how Lynch's use of music can be translated into current musical discourse. / text

This thesis investigates possible connections between the music of Erik Satie (1866-1925) and the later surrealist movement, turning to Parade (1917) in a case study that seeks to understand surrealism in music through the idea of self-exploration, a well-established interpretive approach in studies of surrealism in the visual arts. This thesis seeks to redefine surrealism in music not as a set of concrete musical characteristics, but as a collection of techniques meant to evoke subconscious turbulence by blurring the boundary between the "outside" and "inside," between conscious and subconscious, leading to a new discovery of higher or deeper truth. Satie's music aligns with the psychoanalytic elements of the discourse on surrealism. Psychoanalysis, pioneered by Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) and his followers in the 1890s in Vienna, permeated France around the time of the creation of the work. It inspired early surrealist techniques like automatism, illusory formal structures, collage, and stylistic allusion. This thesis demonstrates that such techniques can be discerned throughout Parade, not only in Satie's music, but also in its scenario, staging, costumes, and choreography. As such, Parade was a foundational work for the surrealist movement, with Satie's music contributing with the other media equally to the emotional and psychological impact of the ballet.
