Abstract

The objective of this paper is to present, based on the reading of essays on psychoanalytic theory by Sigmund Freud, an understanding of the psychic processes of the subject in a situation of violence. We believe that the drive is the condition for the establishment of the link between subject and culture. When a situation of violence presents itself to the subject, it breaks with this condition, annulling the subject's possibility of representing himself in a time and space. As a way to re-establish the subject in the drive circuit that places him in a relation with the other, the transmission of this experience of violence presents itself as a duty. This transmission, however, does not occur without the inscription of loss.
