Sublimação: Da construção ao resgate do conceito

Abstract

The sublimation concept was not developed by Freud in a single article, but was worked in several texts concerning other matters and in different times of his production, lacking both an organization of these fragments and the discussion of the contradictions found in Freud's theory. Lacan rescued the concept of sublimation in Freud's work, trying to prevent its reduction to a normative concept. This article aims to draw the construction of sublimation concept by Freud and to indicate the rescue of this concept produced by Lacan.
