Narcissism is one of the most important concepts in the freudian theory. Since its appearing, in 1910, it has been present in the author's writings and has impacted psychoanalysis considerably, contributing to the transition from the first to the second topic, as well as to the establishment of the second drive theory. By analyzing the historical development of narcissism, it is possible to observe that it had a period of straightforward growth until 1923. However, after the so called “turn of the twenties”, he gradually diminished his writings, even thought it is possible to find some mentions in Freud's last works. It is specifically that scenery the present article intends to discuss, namely to try to understand what are the destinations bestowed to narcissism after 1920. It is suggested that one of its unfoldings is its contribution to the modification of the masochism theory. Therefore, narcissism would remain present in Freud's works through its reverberations in the approach of other phenomena.Downloads
