CORREA, Celmy de A. A. Quilelli. Metapsychology as a place for theoretical dialogue about technique, practice, psychic life and culture. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2015, vol.49, n.4, pp. 57-69. ISSN 0486-641X.

The author praises the congress initiative of highlighting the metapsychological writings as a place for dialogues with practice, technique and culture. By examining the Brazilian historical context, the author proposes hypotheses in order to evaluate the predominance of some concepts in the metapsychological teaching. The author refers to a research that relates the "turning point of 1920" to the influence of the German Romanticism in Freud's thinking, as a possible access to the mysterious and irrational ideas in the last Freudian writings. The author also suggests that the concepts of death drive, primary identification, abandonment, primary masochism, constructions and femininity may escape from the impasse of Enlightenment Rationality, when the "metapsychological witch" is called.

Palabras clave : metapsychology; field: unconscious place; second theory of instinctual drive; German Romanticism.
