Abstract

After having defined the structure of personality, the author examines its destiny late in life. If certain structures keep up in old age such as well internalised neuroses, others end up in actual neuroses or undergo a massive destructuring process, as in Alzheimer's disease. Using the psychosomatic theory of the Paris School (Pierre Marty), which emphasizes trauma and fixations, the author inquires into these different clinical configurations as well as into their possible relations.
