Abstract

GUIMARAES, Luiz Moreno. The paradox of the same and the other: analysis of Laerte's comic strip. Ide (São Paulo) [online]. 2017, vol.40, n.64, pp.199-214. ISSN 0101-3106.

We aim to examine one of Laerte's strips, which addresses the theme of literal repetition, highlighting the singular position of the character. For this, we propose to think of the strip - comparing to the film Groundhog Day (1993) - as a possible answer to some of the problems formulated by both Nietzsche in naming the eternal return and Freud in analyzing the destiny compulsion. In such a way that our more general purpose is to contribute to the psychoanalytic investigation of destiny, through a specific analysis.

Keywords : Comic strip; Destiny; Eternal return; Repetition.
