Type de matériel :
TexteLangue : français Détails de publication : 2004.
Sujet(s) : Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : When Freud read Kleinpaul’s book Die Lebendigen und die Toten in 1897, he borrowed an expression—“Death is a corpse”—which helped him to underline that the representations and thoughts of death conceal sexual wishes. After translating some passages of Kleinpaul’s book, we will show that “death is a corpse” remained a Freudian leitmotiv until Freud’s turnaround in 1912, when he argued that the sexual desire for a beautiful and silent woman conceals thoughts about death itself.
