Abstract

ALBERTONI, Lucas Baptista  and  LAGES, Sônia Regina Corrêa. Long-lasting conjugal love relationships in the contemporaneity: a phenomenological analysis of experiences. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2018, vol.24, n.3, pp. 275-286. ISSN 1809-6867.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18065/RAG.2018v24n3.2.

The main objective of this study was to investigate how the structure of the experience of long-lasting conjugal love relationships is configured. To accomplish this endeavor, field research was conducted in the Greater Belo Horizonte area with people selected through objective criteria (intentional sample), who experience the referred relationship model. For the data collection, non-directive and semi-structured interviews were conducted in order to preserve the dynamics of the experience. Excerpts from previously recorded and transcribed interviews, which more clearly revealed the phenomenon investigated, were exposed. The phenomenological analysis was used at this moment and contributed to the achievement of meaningful units, which were discussed more broadly after being synthetized in two axes: 1) the experience of long-lasting conjugal love as deprived of romanticism; 2) the experience of long-lasting conjugal love as openness. Therefore, in the analysis of how the subjects elaborate their experience, it was possible to understand the structure as integrating non-romantic love and openness.

Keywords : Phenomenology; Love; Conjugality; Long-lasting experience; Contemporaneity.
