Resumo(s)
Este trabalho consiste num estudo Rorschach de um indivíduo transexual M-F e visa
compreender os sentimentos de estranheza do transexual, suportando-nos no conceito de
unheimiliche de Freud (1919/1981). De forma a podermos aceder ao nosso objecto, iremos
procurar verificar a representação que o sujeito faz de si e a representação que faz das
relações, focando-nos, essencialmente, na análise do funcionamento dos limites, uma vez que
é a partir destes que é possível compreender como se organiza a inquietante estranheza no
mundo interno do transexual. Os resultados obtidos apontam para a existência de uma
instabilidade dos limites entre o Eu e o Outro, entre o Ser e o Não-Ser. A identidade mal
consolidada, da qual não se verificou a internalização suficiente do objecto, cria a incerteza
entre duas realidades que são o masculino e o feminino, produzindo-se a inquietante
estranheza. E como afirma Freud (1919), as dúvidas em relação ao próprio, podem conduzir a
uma duplicação, divisão e até a uma troca do próprio Eu, podendo ser isso que se tenha
passado.
This work consists in a Rorschach study of a transexual M-F individual and it aims to understand the transexual’s uncanny feelings, having Freud’s (1919/1981) unheimiliche concept as a support. In order to achieve our object, we will verify the representation that the subject makes of himself and the representation that he makes of relationships, focusing, essentially, on the analysis of the boundaries functioning, since they give us the possibility of understanding how the uncanny in the transexual’s internal world organizes itself. The obtained results point out the existence of a boundary instability within Me and the Other, within Being and Non-Being. The scarcely consolidated identity, without the confirmation of the object’s adequate internalization, creates the uncertainty between two realities which are the masculine and the feminine, therefore producing the uncanny. And, as declared by Freud (1919/1981), the doubts concerning oneself, may lead to a duplication, division and even to an exchange of the ‘I’ himself, and that could be what had happened.
