SOUZA, Aline de Oliveira e and RINALDI, Doris Luz. What does the clinic with adolescent teach us about the act?. Rev. Subj. [online]. 2017, vol.17, n.3, pp.70-81. ISSN 2359-0769. https://doi.org/10.5020/23590777.rs.v17i3.5520.
This paper aims to pinpoint, from a clinical practice with an adolescent in a public general hospital, the concept of the act for psychoanalysis, according to Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan's theories. We will discuss the specificity of the act both as regards a peculiar mode of repetition, by way of compulsion that do not appear by means of speech, but by the acting out; as in regard to the analyst's act as function, indicating its particularity in the incidence of a cut in relation to repetition as compulsion. One's clinical approach to adolescent draws attention to consider the prevalence of repetition by way of the act, which has the body as a target. In addition, as the function of the analytic act can operate from an enigmatic signifier that is revealed in the act, so to allocate a repeat act in a repetition by means of speech.
