T1 - A Contemporary Notion of Time: Fragments of a Case from Rio de Janeiro JF - International Forum of Psychoanalysis, Oslo (Scandinavian University Press) Vol. 11 (No. 2, June 2002), pp. 141-148. N2 - This paper presents vignettes of a case from the city of Rio de Janeiro in which temporality appears as a fundamental issue. Severe difficulties in validating the past and integrating past, present and future reveal pertinent questions on time and the ideal function in the contemporary world. The author underlines the relevance of such questioning for the practice of psychoanalysis today. Y1 - 2002 ER -
