SANTOS, Camila Backes dos and MOSCHEN, Simone Zanon. The Map of Absences and Obliterations in Bruno Schulz's The Street Of Crocodiles. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.1, pp.287-308. ISSN 1808-4281. https://doi.org/10.12957/epp.2020.50834.
This paper aims to highlight, trough the narrative of the polish writer Bruno Schulz, a possible operator for the link between psychoanalysis and literature: text (literary novel or a life narrated in analysis) as the result of the impossibility to represent real. The reading of Schulz with the guidelines from Freud's and Lacan's psychoanalytic theories let us examine what we have called "map of absences and obliterations" in the compilation of fifteen short stories The street of croocodiles. This map traces the lines of a territory in which is possible to highlight the reverberations of Freud's concept of strange, and enable us to reflect upon the effects of the reading Schulz's works.
