RIVERA BERNAL, Fernando Alfredo. THE SYMPTOMATOLOGICAL TEXT. ELEMENTS FOR READING THE 'INDICIAL PARADIGM'. Forma funcion, Santaf, de Bogot, D.C. [online]. 2016, vol.29, n.1, pp.179-205. ISSN 0120-338X.  https://doi.org/10.15446/fyf.v29n1.58515.

This paper explores the characteristics of the 'indicial' interpretation or analysis of particularities, starting from the contraposition between individuality and detail and the general qualities inherent to the analytical resources implicit in the categories of mentalities, world views, and collective representations. To identify their features and potentialities, the 'morphological' and 'microscopic' perspective developed by Carlo Ginzburg is revised, as well as the iconological and iconographic foci by Aby Warburg and Erwin Panofsky, whose views allow for a 'diagnostic' interpretation of indexes, prints and marks, drawing the profiles of the 'cultural symptomatology'. Likewise, Morelli's indicial methodology is linked to the topics of Freudian psychoanalysis and, especially to the deductive processes applied by Sherlock Holmes. Based on this conjunction the kernel of its particularity becomes refined: 'abduction', formulated by Charles Sanders Peirce, a resource that is proposed as sagittal in the 'reading' of the morphology of cultural symptoms.

Palavras-chave : Indicial paradigm; iconography; abduction; cultural symptomatology.
