ABSTRACT
On the horizon of paranoiac potentiality there rises what others see and hear as delusion. These considerations on paranoia, with which this book ends, will allow me to extend my reflection on the role of historical reality and on its action in the ‘sense-making’ that will be privileged by primary delusional thinking. I am not proposing a theory of paranoia, but showing how a ‘perceived hate’ marks the destiny of these subjects and becomes the pivot around which their theory concerning origins is developed. Like a wicked witch, this hate leans over their cradle from their entry into the world: the rest of their lives will be simply an unequal struggle against this evil spell that inexorably persecutes them.
