KUBO, Yutaka. The Messiah: a contribution to the psychoanalytic study of psychosomatic manifestation. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2016, vol.50, n.1, pp.142-148. ISSN 0486-641X.

Based on the dual instinct theory - life and death drives -, the author presents a concept to understand and study the psychosomatic manifestation. This might be the result, expression, and defense against the perception of the simultaneous action of the two instincts. If seen in this way, psychosomatic manifestation would have an integrative feature. The author attempts to consubstantiate this way of seeing by bringing some arguments and clinical material to this paper.

Palabras clave : psychosomatization; perception; life drive; death drive; integration.
