RESUMO

It has been verified in literature a growing number of studies concerning adolescence. One may classify modernity as an adolescent time whose model is adolescence. It has been observed that a great number of the behaviors presented by some adults are actually imitations of those found in adolescents. With the failure of the parental function, the adolescence process has been lengthened throughout the times and also new forms of symptomatic manifestations characteristic of this period have been observed. With the discovery of the oedipus complex, adolescence loses the importance it has had at the begining of the psychoanalysis construction. It reappears at Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality (1905) as the last stage of sexuality and it is assigned by Freud to be the place where one of the hardest and most painful tasks are to be endured: the detachment from the parental figures. In the present work adolescence is chosen as an oedipal re-signification time, recovering from freudian works and transforming it in an operant concept considering Lacans contributions to psychoanalysis, with the purpose of offering a metapsychological statute. This theoretical construction will make possible to give emphasis to adolescence in psychoanalysis given that we cannot deny its existence is contemporary phenomena
