SUMMARY:

Taking the epistemology of sexuality in psychoanalysis as a theme and area of investigation, this thesis aims to study the constitution and epistemic legitimation of Freudian formulations of sexuality: notions and conceptual set. Thus, a historical-conceptual methodology was chosen that considers both the evolution and reformulation of notions and concepts within Freud's work, as well as the author's way of thinking, his epistemic orientations and their relationship with some social determinants, problematic period and influences. From the investigation of specific works by Freud on sexuality, its notions, its conceptual set (Trieb; support; libido; bisexuality; female sexuality) and also those of other scholars of epistemology and psychoanalytic theory, we tried to describe and discuss Freudian conceptions, seeking to relate them to the scientific and/or philosophical orientations that legitimize them from an epistemic point of view. The investigation was divided into three moments: the first seeks to describe and discuss Freud's formulations of sexuality from the first pre-psychoanalytic works to the sketch of the dream-desire theory; the second part of the formulation of the theory of infantile sexuality to the systematic theories of Trieb; the third from the outline of female sexuality, locating the origins, development, problems and limits. The study showed that Freud, throughout his work, conceives sexuality: 1. associated with an etiological conception of trauma that seeks to explain the foundations of neuroses, at first as a theory of seduction; in a second moment, as fantasy theory; 2. from a monistic epistemological perspective and a naturalist ontology, which take the natural sciences as the only scientific model; 3. guided by classical physical-chemical principles and concepts – such as those of Newtonian physics – and biological – mainly Darwinian ones; 4. as a conflicting and/or convergent link between the perverse-polymorphic dimension and the reproductive function; 5. as a theoretical-conceptual component of Trieb's systematic theories, being associated and legitimized by knowledge, mainly, from biological science; 6. in its feminine specificity, that is, as female sexuality, at first, from a perspective of sexual monism of the libido, treated as unique and masculine, legitimized by the phallic-castrated model and defined by the equation between active and masculine, passive and feminine; in a second moment from a libidinal monism, reflecting the complexity and limits of the problem of this equation. The study showed that Freud's naturalism, understood as naturalism open to the natural phenomenon, is crucial for the understanding and investigation of sexuality and for its theoretical-conceptual evolution. We tried to show that the study of Freudian naturalism in a perspective that considers its ontological dimension – ontological conservatism, ontology of the sexual being, ontological dualism – and epistemological – epistemological monism; epistemology of naturalistic inspiration; methodological passage – it is necessary to apprehend the author's epistemic way of thinking, without which a theory of sexuality in psychoanalysis would not be possible.
