FERRARINI, Pâmela Pitágoras Freitas Lima and MAGALHAES, Lívia Diana Rocha. The concept of memory in freud's work: brief explanations. Est. Inter. Psicol. [online]. 2014, vol.5, n.1, pp. 109-118. ISSN 2236-6407. http://dx.doi.org/10.5433/2236-6407.2014v5n1p109.
This article aims to describe the concept of memory in the work of Sigmund Freud, forerunner of psychoanalysis. The theme of memory and its different manifestations in the psyche were part of the theoretical concerns of Freud, leading to inquire about the functioning of this in his many writings. Through analysis of Freud's work and other theorists who debated on the subject, this theoretical study aims to demonstrate that memory, in psychoanalysis, Freud was always present in the formulation of human subjectivity. The constant evolution of his theory allowed the memory gain increasing status, from a purely individual and functional analysis, for a social and cultural dimension, becoming one of the foundations of his theory.
Keywords : memory; psychoanalysis; Sigmund Freud.
