Abstract

COUTO, Daniela Paula do  and  SILVA, Mardem Leandro. The Psychoanalysis Of Children In Brazil: A Historical Account. Psicol. pesq. [online]. 2018, vol.12, n.3, pp. 94-102. ISSN 1982-1247.  http://dx.doi.org/10.24879/2018001200300515.

A historical account of the origins of the psychoanalysis of children in Brazil is presented, highlighting the political, cultural and social factors that influenced the emergence and development of this field. We highlight the way in which Psychiatry, along with social medicine of the nineteenth century, guided the pioneers of Psychoanalysis of children, from the conception of school mental hygiene and its normative ideology. It is concluded that despite the adherence to an adaptational discourse in its emergence, the Psychoanalysis of children, today, no longer communes with a normative ideal, given that the drive dimension in each subject is uncontrollable and responds by the singularity of the symptom of each child, which prevents an adaptation to the social as hygienists.

Keywords : Psychoanalysis of children; history; mental hygiene.
