We begin with a brief theoretical-conceptual review with respect to Freud's process of sublimation, as well as the return and deepening carried out by Lacan, and considering contemporary articulations on the subject, we relate its importance, long neglected, with regard to the aspects and theoretical-clinical developments, as well as its fundamental importance with respect to understanding the psychic constitution within the psychoanalytic framework.295-310engCreative processesPsychoanalysisSublimationArtigo10.1590/S1516-14982016002010S1516-14982016000200295Acesso aberto2-s2.0-84971419955S1516-14982016000200295.pdf
