Sujet(s) : Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : Love and death, rather than fighting against each other, sometimes meet during adolescence. In Leonce and Lena from G. Büchner, the two eponymous adolescent heroes refer to death and its associated representations, the dead child or suicide, when they meet and fall in love. Death symbolizes and sums up the threat of loss that the discovery of the genital object causes. It is invoked by the adolescent in order to “cool down” and produce the anti-cathexis of an instinct whose incestuous coloration they fear.
