Abstract: The author starts from the apparently outdated James-Lange theory of emotion to rediscover elements of modernity for contemporary psychoanalysis: from James' bodily-sensory dimension to Damasio's "feeling of what happens," to Bucci's attention to the patient's visceral narrative in session. William James stated that bodily sensations are the first elements on the path toward consciousness. Damasio emphasizes that "Consciousness is rooted in the representation of the body". Bucci presents a framework for identifying linkages between bodily and symbolic states and to observe the various degrees of patients' "visceral speech" in session. These parallels support a sensibility to listen to language as the voice of the body: the relationship between the patient's narrative and the bodily-sensory dimension can be grasped through the patient's "imagery" which may reference earlier somatic experience. Particular emphasis is given to the story-telling of trauma. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
