What good is it today, for a psychoanalyst, the readings of Freud's clinical accounts? Besides being an obligatory reading that must be in his/her library, it is necessary something that stimulates its practice. Freud places in his accounts what primarily is conceived by Lacan as the point in which the master lines of a lifetime culminate, which would mark the point that would fix the singularity of a subject. Afterwards, Lacan proposes the extraction of a paradoxical object in the course of an analysis, something he names object a. The work investigates how the case of the Wolf Man can give us the access to this element without objectifying it, but in conformity with the specificity that characterizes it.
