MUNHOZ, Josênia Maria Heck. What does representation mean?. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2009, vol.43, n.2, pp. 77-85. ISSN 0486-641X.

The author aims to understand representation as a concept in Freud’s work, using the help of other authors such as: Green, Hanns, Garcia-Rosa, Laplanche & Pontalis and Valls. It is understood that representation is a complex and extremely articulated concept which unites in the core of its definition, pure Freudian metapsychology in relation to the instincts and affects. Hence, representation embodies a phenomenon of where its role is linked to the structuring of the psychic apparatus and to the conscious and unconscious mind. It covers the three psychoanalytic points of view which are: economic dynamic and topographical.
