‘No memory, no desire’: Psychoanalysis in Brazil during Repressive Times

“…Russo proposes that, although psychoanalytic practice first developed within the domain of hygiene projects, physicians like Porto-Carrero saw in its nonmoralistic attitude a way to humanise the psychiatric movement. Another possibility is that this was a way of ensuring that psychoanalytic discourse did not have any destabilising effect on psychiatric knowledge in the country, in the sense of ameliorating its theoretical rationality or its established practices, as well as restricting its impact to providing one more therapeutic modality within the psychiatric model (Oliveira, 2002 Andrade (1928), mentions Freud at least three times, in the context of defending an original Brazilian identity free from repression and social restrictions. Moreover, the social and cultural elites of the period also absorbed psychoanalysis in their search for modernity along European models.…”

“…By the mid-1940s, within the context of the 'New State' regime in Brazil and the end of the war in Europe, the psychoanalytic group of São Paulo (SBPSP) was granted partial IPA affiliation (Oliveira, 2002). At this point Marcondes, who offered great support to Koch, was still fighting not only to establish psychoanalysis according to the IPA regulations, but more than that, to convince doctors and the medical class of the value of this new profession, represented at that moment by a woman who was Jewish and German (Facchinetti & Ponte, 2003).…”

“…These settings were, especially, psychiatry, where psychoanalysis was introduced as a new form of therapy; education, as an important tool to theorize a possible improvement of the 'Brazilian character'; and cultural movements in search both of modernisation and construction of a national identity. The second moment, from the end of the 1930s until the mid-1960s, comprised the formation of the first generation of psychoanalysts and the institutionalisation of psychoanalysis following the canons of the IPA (Oliveira, 2002). The last stage documented here covers the period during which the worst years of dictatorship took place; in regard to this, we aim to examine what the Cabernite-Lobo episode tells us about Brazilian psychoanalysis in that period, and formulate some hypotheses about how the movement thrived during the military regime in its so called 'years of lead'.…”

O psicanalista na saúde pública: uma prática do trabalho em equipe

“…Um dos principais precursores da Psicanálise no Rio de Janeiro foi o médico Júlio Pires Porto-Carrero (1887-1937, que foi coordenador do serviço de Psicanálise na Liga Brasileira de Higiene Mental, criada em 1926, considerada como uma das primeiras iniciativas de aplicação terapêutica psicanalítica do país (Abrão, 2011). Em São Paulo, o psiquiatra Durval Marcondes (1899Marcondes ( -1981 introduz as ideias freudianas na atividade clínica (Oliveira, 2002) A difusão da Psicanálise para outras regiões do país e o nascimento de outras tendências e escolas psicanalíticas, ocorre nos anos 1970 (Oliveira, 2002), período em que surgem os primeiros movimentos de Psicanálise lacaniana no Brasil (Vale, 2003):…”
