Édouard Pichon
Édouard Pichon (; 24 June 1890 – 20 January 1940) was a French pediatrician, grammarian and psychoanalyst. Career A distinguished and innovative grammarian, Pichon was analysed by Eugénie Sokolnicka, and became a founding member of the Paris Psychoanalytic Society in 1926. A member of the royalist and reactionary Action Française, Pichon represented the jingoistic strand of French psychoanalysis, with his belief in "the genuine culture and the true civilization of our country...this fundamental Frenchness". Through his mixture of linguistic and psychoanalytic thinking, Pichon was a powerful influence on Jacques Lacan (as well as a practical mentor). In ''Écrits'', Lacan paid tribute to "a divination that I can attribute only to his practise of semantics...that guided him in people's dark places". Among the psychoanalytic concepts introduced by what Élisabeth Roudinesco called Pichon's "fatalist genius",E. Roudinesco, ''Jacques Lacan and Co'' (1990) p. 276 were those of ob ...

Foreclosure (psychoanalysis)
In psychoanalysis, foreclosure (also known as "foreclusion"; ) is a specific psychical cause for psychosis, according to French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan. History According to Élisabeth Roudinesco, the term was originally introduced into psychology 'in 1928, when Édouard Pichon published, in Pierre Janet's review, his article on "The Psychological Significance of Negation in French": "...[and] borrowed the legal term ''forclusif'' to indicate facts that the speaker no longer sees as part of reality'. According to Christophe Laudou, the term was introduced by Damourette and Pichon. Freud vs Laforgue The publication took part against the background of the Twenties dispute between Freud and René Laforgue over scotomization. 'If I am not mistaken', Freud wrote in 1927, 'Laforgue would say in this case that the boy "scotomizes" his perception of the woman's lack of a penis. A new technical term is justified when it describes a new fact or emphasizes it. This is not the case her ...

He studied medicine in Berlin.

Scotomization
Scotomization is a psychological term for the mental blocking of unwanted perceptions, analogous to the visual blindness of an actual scotoma. Controversies This term initially was used by Charcot in connection with hysteria. Psychoanalysis Reviving in the 1920s this term, Rene Laforgue and Edouard Pichon introduced the idea of scotomization into psychoanalysis â€“ a move initially welcomed by Freud in 1926 as a useful description of the hysterical avoidance of distressing perceptions. The following year, however, he attacked the term for suggesting that the perception was wholly blotted out (as with a retina's blind spot), whereas his clinical experience showed that on the contrary intense psychic measures had to be taken to keep the unwanted perception out of consciousness. A debate followed between Freud and Laforgue, further illuminated by Pichon's 1928 article on 'The Psychological Significance of Negation in French', where he argued that "The French language expr ...
