TIZON, Jorge L. Carlos Castilla del Pino: resisting, exploring, communicating…. Rev. Asoc. Esp. Neuropsiq. [online]. 2023, vol.43, n.144, pp.163-182.  Epub 15-Ene-2024. ISSN 2340-2733.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0211-57352023000200009.

Based on a common experience, we try to highlight some outstanding personal characteristic of Carlos Castilla del Pino that allowed him to resist the socio-cultural and professional lethargy of Francoism and develop, despite everything, a relevant professional and theoretical life. To do so, he had to resist that lethargy and gagging of the long night of stone and mortar of Francoism and, on top of that, in a provincial city harshly retaliated during and after the Spanish civil war; therefore dominated for decades by institutional and ideological fascism. Despite this, Castilla del Pino managed to develop a highly advanced, coherent and risky theoretical work, especially in psychopathology, anthropology and ideology, for whose understanding I propose a pragmatic framework. The Republican motto, “to resist is to win”, could be a good summary of his professional and theoretical life, although it is more doubtful that such statement can have the same value for his personal life.

Palabras clave : psychopathology; psychiatry; biologism; resistance; feelings; emotions; history.
