A arte de amar: a mulher, o sexo e a transgressão

Abstract

The erotic / pornographic literature bears the stigmata that make sexuality a fenced subject of prejudices and taboos, which govern the structure of the moral values of our Western society. This degree of resistance to erotic / pornographic literary text is accentuated when it makes room for the psychoanalytic speech. In this research, we prepare to discuss, through the feminine look, the means of repression of libidinal impulses imposed by the social environment and its patriarchal culture, as well as develop a meaningful discussion about the process of formation and consolidation of female sexuality through the prism of psychoanalysis. Therefore, we use and discuss the theoretical contributions of Sigmund Freud and Lacan, among other important names of psychoanalytic theory.
