Abstract

FONOFF, Fernanda M. Colucci. The fuge from social and the search of individual: partnerships on the study of “A maçã no escuro” of Clarice Lispector. Psyche (Sao Paulo) [online]. 2004, vol.8, n.13, pp. 71-84. ISSN 1415-1138.

The starting point of this work is the literary analysis of Clarice Lispector's romance A maçã no escuro - The apple in the dark. After the character Martin had committed a crime, he begins a journey characterized by the apparent rejection of the socially conventionalized language, searching his own. This study proposes the investigation of such themes as individuation, subjective formation and the importance of paternal function for introjections of social laws.

Keywords : Literature/psychoanalysis; Clarice Lispector; Language; Life and death instinct; Individuation.
