ABSTRACT

The author addresses the work of the narrative and enactive co-narration. He takes Bollas to be underscoring the value of letting the narrative of actions, of the real, speak as they emerge in the enactive co-narration of the analytic couple. The author devotes to the detailed description of two cases (Pamela and Nick) that illustrate the work of the narrative and enactive co-narration. Or, more accurately from the enactive co-narration approach, Pamela and the author were her past in a timelessness zone together where he came to be her parents and they came to live an "identificatory reproduction" of how she had been treated in her family. The author explores about vignettes of his work with both Pamela and Nick have illustrated that enactment may be usefully conceptualized as a form or register of narration and representation rather than a block in relatedness and the representational process of psychoanalysis.
