SCHARINGER, Joana Pantoja  e  CHATELARD, Daniela Scheinkman. Freud: pensador da diferença. Rev. Mal-Estar Subj. [online]. 2010, vol.10, n.2, pp. 399-424. ISSN 1518-6148.

This article is meant to provide a brief overview of texts by Freud dealing with the topic of difference. The starting point is to address concepts such as the complex of the fellow human being, narcissism, identification, the internal-external relationship, the I-other relationship, the stranger, etc. The proposal is, therefore, to draw a theoretical path through some Freudian texts and, based on it, defend that difference-related topics are present in all of them/ as a constant link of interest to the author. The intention is to indicate that Freud believed that the dynamics of psychism is always related to what is, in one way or another, the other one, to what differs. Subjects depend on other subjects when they are born, they develop relations with people and culture, they fall in love with things and people, they identify themselves. Subjects are constantly dealing with the inside and the outside, with what is oneself and the other. The concept of "other" mentioned here doesn't comprise only what is outside the subject, since even internally it is possible for one to experience something as different, as when the unconscious makes itself present through language lapses and faulty actions. In this connection, the notion of otherness and the experience of a difference are also present. What this means is that Freud insistently addressed the topic of difference.
