GOMES, Rebeca  y  FREIRE, José Célio. Love and its relations with alterity, desire and creation. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2016, vol.16, n.spe, pp. 1271-1287. ISSN 1808-4281.

Seduced by the allure that love carries on in the most diverse areas of human experience and convinced of the polysemous nature and always renewed love knots, we are encouraged to investigate the place reserved for alterity in romantic relationships in contemporary times. We studied the theme of love, addressing her under different theoretical approaches. Among them, we highlight the considerations of Zygmunt Bauman, Emmanuel Lévinas, Anthony Giddens and Gilles Lipovetsky, while at the same time, we support in the psychoanalytic notion of love as assistance to human incompleteness. Finally, persuaded of the multiple forms of arrangement between love and alterity, is marked by a radical alterity ethics, by narcissistic demand of a hedonistic model of society or by the fragile connections of love liquid, beyond those issues, we observe that love evokes an esthetic dimension, whose relationship is established with the desire, the beauty and creation.

Palabras clave : love; alterity; desire; creation.
