FIORINI, Leticia Glocer. Women in Freud’s context and text. J. psicanal. [online]. 2009, vol.42, n.76, pp.121-135. ISSN 0103-5835.

The author invites the reader to review Freud’s works, focusing on his conceptualizations regarding women and the feminine, connecting them at the same time to Freud’s experiences in turn-of-the-century Vienna. In her analysis, she highlights the need to de-construct the Freudian discourse on this subject. The author discusses the subject/object opposition and its relation to masculine/feminine polarity, as well as to infantile sexual theories and the different paths of psychosexual development in girls. She also establishes a connection with the concept of otherness in regard to the feminine. In this context, she analyzes the epistemological suppositions and ideological influences of the times, while pointing out that the Freudian discoveries respond in part to these suppositions and influences and partly go beyond them, being an original creation.
