The aim of this paper is to discuss the relationship that language, through Freudian psychoanalyst axis, contributes to the formation of cultural subjectivities and to the understanding of cases of necrophilia practiced by Leopoldo, the protagonist of the novel Os cordeiros do abismo, as well as its consequences psychic. This is a bibliographic review, and for this, the following theoretical corpus is used: Freud (2019), Moscatello (2010), Lopes (2017), Hall (2006), Costa (1992), Laraia (2004) Iser (1983) and Aristóteles (2001). True or fantasized, the necrophilia in Leopoldo shows more than a pathology, outlines in his delusions a whole family structure that would have influenced his sadistic behaviors. In Leopoldo’s final walk, there are internal and external evaluations to be made, question marks that remain about the burden of life. The cross as a symbol of everything that you do not want to carry, of what you want to deny in order to transcend to a greater place, perhaps it is the training for raising awareness in the purification of the mistakes made. Leopoldo and the other characters became human insofar as they served the narrative staging, exposing to the reader, all their crimes and perversions.
