Resumen

LEOPOLD, Nosek. Infinity and the body: notes for a theory of genitality. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2009, vol.43, n.2, pp.139-158. ISSN 0486-641X.

The author reviews the concept of genitality and, equating the unconscious to the infinite as understood by Levinas, attributes to psychoanalysis an ethics derived from reception of the other. Meaning is constructed under the aegis of the genital, the only sexual mode in which desire does not contain otherness.
