Abstract

The present work as its starting point some inquiries about the relation between the alphabetical writing and the subjective constitution instigated by a therapeutic accompaniment practice with an autistic child in a regular private school. Taking the diagnoses of autism in childhood as a suspension on the way of the subjective constitution, this account starts at the symbolic bet for this child up to the links made with first marks, written words, which made the beginning of an unconscious writing and new alternatives possible for this boy.
