Jadajućem govoru, kao svakodnevnoj ali i istorijski-kulturno svepri sutnoj pojavi, u ovom radu se pristupa kroz uporednu analizu feno mena svakodnevnog kukanja i estetizovanog lamenta. Distinkcije ra zličitih oblika nakukavanja se pre svega nalaze kroz njihov odnos
prema afektivnom životu individue. U tom cilju, rad se oslanja na psi hoanalitičke teorije reprezentacije i afekta, posebno rad A. Grina i
njegov doprinos psihoanalitičkom shvatanju afektivnosti u opštem
psihičkom životu. Pokazuje se da funkcija kuknjave može predstavlja ti opis doživljenog sveta osobe koji svedoči ono smisleno i autentično
u perspektivi lamentirajućeg subjekta. Sa druge strane, nemogućnost
suočavanja sa nadirućim pluralitetom smisla dovodi do odbrana vi dljivih u perpetuaciji kuknjave. U tom slučaju, jadajući govor umesto
osvedočavanja iskustva ima pokrivajuću funkciju. U nastavku rada
razmatraju se retoričke odlike oba modaliteta jadajućeg govora, kroz
pojam ekfraze (kao antičke retoričke f...igure opisa umetničkog dela).
Pitanje retoričkih efekata nadovezaće se na analizu pesničkog pojma
„sposobnosti za negativno“, iz pera pesnika Kitsa preuzetog u teoriji
psihoanalitičara V. Biona. Zbog nužnog manjkanja u osnovi jadajućeg
iskustva, negativna funkcija u govoru se pokazuje kao nužna za auten tičan opis gubitka i osujećenja. Rad se završava razmatranjem različi tih oblika lamentirajućeg odnosa prema sudbinskom stanju stvari,
kao i njihovih posledica, kroz uporednu analizu likova u dve poznate
drame Vilijama Šekspira, Hamleta i Kralja Lira.
A psychological analysis must approach mournful speech, as an everyday but also his torically and culturally ubiquitous phenomenon, through a comparative analysis of the
phenomena of everyday wailing and aestheticized lamentation. The distinctions of
different forms of wailing are primarily found in their respective relationships to the
affective life of the individual. To this end, the investigation relies on psychoanalytic
theories of representation and affect, especially those found in the work of A. Green,
and his contribution to the psychoanalytic understanding of affectivity in general psy chic life. It is shown that whining and wailing can be used as an authentic description
of the world that is experienced, and as a testament to what is meaningful and authen tic from the perspective of the lamenting subject. On the other hand, the inability to
face the encroaching plurality of meaning also leads to the perpetuation of whining,
but now as a defensive structure. I...n that case, lamenting speech, instead of testifying
the authentic experience, serves as a cover or a screen, as the possible meaning pres ents the subject with something he is not ready to acknowledge. The next part of the
paper deals with the rhetorical foundations of both modalities of mournful speech,
analyzing them through the concept of ekphrasis (ancient rhetorical descriptions of
the work of visual art). For the wailing subject, the speech serves as a description of a
world that should be, and the suffering is a consequence of the disparity between the
real and the world that is longed for. The question of lamenting effects of speech will
be further explored through the analysis of the poetic term negative capability, invent ed by the poet J. Keats and used throughout the work of the psychoanalyst W. Bion.
Because of the necessary ontological lack underlying every distressing experience, the
negative function in speech proves necessary for an authentic description of loss and
frustration. The paper ends with a consideration of different forms of lamenting atti tudes toward the fateful state of affairs, as well as their consequences, through a com parative analysis of the characters in two well-known plays by William Shakespeare.
Hamlet and Edgar are taken as representatives of two different ways of engagement
with the tragic destiny (using the ideas put forward by Y. Bonnefoy), clearly seen through
the use of two different concepts in their respective speeches: for Hamlet, the answer
to the unchangeable destiny was readiness, while for Edgar it was ripeness.
