title: [Psychopathology in early and compulsive reading].
abstract: For certain children, the hyperlexia syndrome refers to a particular pathology coupling an autistic syndrome on the one hand with a compulsion to read or write on the other, contrasted with problems of self-expression. This symptom is analyzed from clinical, linguistic, and finally, etiopathogenic points of view: several hypotheses are discussed, possibly pointing up different particularities of the clinical pattern.
