Abstract

This paper aims to follow Jacques Lacan's guide-lines on the approach that psychoanalysis must have to literary work, without succumbing to the misnamed applied psychoanalysis, respecting the author's words, without diagnostic aspirations, and from the enigmas the work offers. A reading of Jorge Luis Borges' Funes the Memorious is hoped.
