SILVA, Mardem Leandro; CAVERSAN, Helena de Almeida Cardoso; TEODORO, Elizabeth Fátima  e  COUTO, Daniela Paula do. ARTICULATIONS BETWEEN “THE DANISH GIRL” AND THE “SCHREBER CASE”. Reverso [online]. 2023, vol.45, n.85, pp.43-50.  Epub 04-Nov-2024. ISSN 0102-7395.  https://doi.org/10.5935/0102-7395.v45n85.05.

Starting from the question of how psychoanalysis could help in understanding the anguish of becoming another gender and the possible destinations for the construction of this body, without hastily resorting to the diagnosis of pathology or even psychosis, we aim to reflect on the approximations and distances of becoming woman in the phenomenon of transsexuality and in a case of psychosis. We will resort to an analytical articulation between “The Danish Girl” and the “Schreber case”. We emphasize that the discovery of transsexuality in the first case and the construction of the psychotic delusion in the second, despite seeming similar, present two distinct phenomena, which we seek to differentiate.

Palavras-chave : Danish girl; Psychosis; Schreber; Becoming a woman; Transsexuality.
