SANTOS, Eder Soares. Pressupostos conceituais para a compreensão de angústia em Freud e em Winnicott: Conceptual presuppositions to understand the anxieties in Freud and in Winnicott. Nat. hum. [online]. 2016, vol.18, n.2, pp. 49-69. ISSN 1517-2430.

This article aims to show some conceptual presuppositions to understand the anxieties in Freud and in Winnicott. We defend the idea that both Freud's and Winnicott's psychoanalytic theories represent different paradigms, i.e., that the concept of anxiety, in the history of psychoanalysis, has undergone some changes, not only in Freud with his first and second theory of anxiety, but also in Winnicott, as he introduced the concept of unthinkable anguish. We seek to demonstrate that the concept of anxiety can be read from a different point-of-view, where the human Dasein is more important than the operation of their psychic mechanisms.

Keywords : anxiety; Oedipus complex; maturation; paradigm; Freud; Winnicott.
