This article intends to reflect on the question of the body in psychoanalysis. The theme of mind-body relationship, so little studied in the psychoanalytical thought, was in the center of the Freud’s attention: "the ego is, above all, a corporeal-ego". Over the time, there was an increasing separation between the body and the mind; this separation is not sustainable by Freudian reading and was generating a great discomfort in psychoanalysis, making it inoperative to face the pathologies and demands of the modern times.
