Abstract

LEVY, Ruggero. History and/in psychoanalysis? And what is the role of the historian/psychoanalyst or of the psychoanalyst, or of the psychoanalytical pair in this construction? Comment to Fernando Novais’ interview. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2008, vol.42, n.2, pp. 32-36. ISSN 0486-641X.

The author, based on the interview given by Dr. Fernando Novais to the Revista Brasileira de Psicanálise, freely makes some comments. It is primarily centered on understanding how the question of the past history of the subject in psychoanalysis is and seen. It differentiates an initial position of the psychoanalysis of attempting to reconstruct the factual history of the subject, with a more contemporary posture of accepting that a possible history has been built as a result of a joint task of the analytical pair.

Keywords : Construction in analysis; Reconstruction; Psychoanalysis and history.
