Resumo: The problem of objectivity in the writing of a biography has always haunted biographers. In the case of Freud’s biographic studies, this question is even more complex, since his first biographers were also psychoanalysts who tried to combine the biographic method with psychoanalysis. We initially discuss the relation of the biographer with his subject and the degree of objectivity that is possible to obtain when one narrates the life of another. The matter of transference and the distortions it introduces in the text is also approached. Next, we follow Freud’s biographers, going through texts since 1923 to comprehend how they work with the challenges of the biographer-biographed relation.

No caso dos estudos biográficos de Freud, essa questão é ainda mais complexa, já que seus primeiros biógrafos eram psicanalistas que tentavam mesclar o método biográfico e o psicanalítico. Discutiremos inicialmente a relação do biógrafo com seu sujeito e o grau de objetividade que é possível atingir ao narrar a vida de alguém. O problema da transferência e das distorções que ela introduz no texto também é abordado. Em seguida acompanharemos os biógrafos de Freud, percorrendo textos desde 1923, para compreender como eles tratam os desafios da relação biógrafo-biografado.Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais2019-10-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/memorandum/article/view/661010.35699/1676-1669.2019.6610Memorandum: Memory and History in Psychology ; Vol. 36 (2019); 1-18Memorandum: Memória e História em Psicologia; v. 36 (2019); 1-181676-1669reponame:Memorandum (Belo Horizonte)instname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/memorandum/article/view/6610/12117Copyright (c) 2019 Memorandum: Memória e História em Psicologiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Marcus Vinicius NetoRocha, Guilherme Massara2023-07-17T14:47:09Zoai:periodicos.ufmg.br:article/6610Revistahttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/memorandum/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/memorandum/oaidecae@fae.ufmg.br1676-16691676-1669opendoar:2023-07-17T14:47:09Memorandum (Belo Horizonte) - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false
