DA FORACLUSÃO À RECONSTRUÇÃO.

This paper intends to make an interlocution between Nise da Silveira's theory and praxis regarding the institutional approach to psychosis and Freud's and Lacan's theorizations on the possibilities of stabilization concerning the Verwerfung. It argues that, despite not being a psychoanalyst, Nise da Silveira acted in conformity to psychoanalytic ethics when she ensured the free speech of the psychotic. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
