Notas sobre o conceito de repetição na psicanálise

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to expose the vicissitudes of the concept of repetition in Freud 's work and in Lacan' s teaching, considering its fundamental relationship with the drive. To do so, we approach repetition in two periods: the first, in which it presents itself as acting out and articulated to the sexual drive, transference and resistance. In the second moment, we talk about the repetition in its relation with the death drive which reveals its condition of being beyond the transference and points to a tychic encounter with the real. Lacan's radicality and originality was emphasized in his return to Freud by giving repetition the status of a fundamental concept, which had been disregarded among the Freudian post.
