JORGE, Marco Antonio Coutinho. Freud's theory of sexuality 100 years later. Psyche (Sao Paulo) [online]. 2007, vol.11, n.20, pp. 29-46. ISSN 1415-1138.

This lecture was given at the opening of the III National Conference of Psychoanalysis of the Federal University of Ceará, held in celebration of the centenary of the publication of Freud's Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality. The concept of drive, introduced in this text, constitutes subversion in the scientific field insofar as it deals with human sexuality in a consistent conceptual logic. Certain notions from Freud, such as general neuropath disposition brought a new outlook onto the debate of the notions of innate and acquired, as well as the blurring of borders between the normal and the pathological. Such subversion still proves to be pressing and necessary in this moment when we see in contemporary culture the emergence of attempts to establish the cure for homosexuality.
