In Genres of Listening Xochitl Marsilli-Vargas explores a unique
culture of listening and communicating in Buenos Aires. She traces
how psychoanalytic listening circulates beyond the clinical setting
to become a central element of social interaction and cultural
production in the city that has the highest number of practicing
psychologists and psychoanalysts in the world. Marsilli-Vargas
develops the concept of genres of listening to demonstrate that
hearers listen differently, depending on where, how, and to whom
they are listening. In particular, she focuses on psychoanalytic
listening as a specific genre. Portenos (citizens of Buenos Aires)
have developed a "psychoanalytic ear" that emerges during
conversational encounters in everyday interactions in which
participants offer different interpretations of the hidden meaning
the words carry. Marsilli-Vargas does not analyze these
interpretations as impositions or interruptions but as productive
exchanges. By outlining how psychoanalytic listening operates as a
genre, Marsilli-Vargas opens up ways to imagine other modes of
listening and forms of social interaction.
