| Résumé : |
This paper relates a research on social representations of otherness and more precisely of the family link, through three anthologies of Greek popular tales. It tries to show how the dimension of the social imaginary interferes in the formation of social representations. The specificity of this type of material lays in the fact that social representations contained in it do not function as practical social thinking directed towards action, but as a social
thinking aimed at mediating the symbolic elaboration of desire and fantasy at group's level. A structural analysis, associated to a quantitative analysis of the contents, pointed out two major categories of social representations of the link. The structure and internal logic of these categories express : a) either a "genital" and triangular problematic of the social link in which the ego and the alter are clearly differentiated and the harmonious cooperation prevails; b) or a fusional and "archaic" problematic of the social link, in which indifferenciation
and violence, submersion by the big archaic anguishes (of persecution, annihilation, loss of object) which signy the partial failure of the differenciation between the self and the non-self, predominates.
The structural analysis has made it possible to draw a thêma which pervades the central nucleus of the social representations and determines their contents and structure. It concems the " difference-resemblance" system of opposition which seems invested with a fundamental symbolic value. |
