Abstract: The article calls into question the social perception and the corporal reading of Emotion, within the relation of inter-personal communication. Defined as an agreeble or painful affective state, emotion is a global and intense reaction to a novel, unexpected situation, a reaction that is accompanied, in every culture, by transient physiological and psychical manifestsations and disorders. The emotion/cognition differentiation is early and diffuse ; when F. Dolto states that « the human being is, above all, a language being », she acknowledges the emotional importance of the « said and unsaid » words on the subsequent events in the lifes of the child, the print of the words, gestures and instances of silence – toxic or nourishing – on the nature/culture transgression which occurs, each and every moment, when one is in the presence of an Other.
