QUINTELLA, Rogério Robbe. Contemporary depression and freudian metapsychology: thinking the neurosis nowadays. Reverso [online]. 2016, vol.38, n.71, pp. 65-73. ISSN 0102-7395.

The article approaches a type of neurotic depression, distinct from melancholy, that emerges in the current psychoanalytic clinic, defining its metapsychological specificity from the presupposition that there is, in contemporary subjectivity, a relation of extreme fleetingness with the ego ideal. In such a depression, the repressed, finding replacement difficulties anchored in the ideal, represents itself by fixed ideas of worthlessness, unsuccess, narcissistic auto insufficiency, much more than in representatives that are supported by a rigid ego ideal that favors displacements capable of promoting the trail of desiring metonymy.
