Psicoanálisis y antropología

Abstract

Starting from the characterization of adolescence as a process of creation and sublimation, this article questions its universality restraining it as a phenomenon that's specifically situated in modernity through a particular aesthetic, linked to the materiality of form(s). Creativity as an identity reclamation dynamic leads to the questioning of the society-subject relation as interpretative code and confluence of symbolic systems, posing an examination of the category of individualism/subjectivity (grounded in the thought of Michel Foucault) and the social bond.
