The feminine, the literature and sexuality

Abstract

This paper approaches different attempts to answer to the question raised by Freud and Lacan: "what does a woman want?". In this article we present an overview of the discursive production of the century XIX, century of the advent of psychoanalysis, and of the contemporary scene, from the perspective of three factors: capital, time and image.
