Emma Bovary is the heroine of Gustave Flaubert's novel that ends up committing suicide. This dissertation arose from professional inaccuracies that led me to search for the bias of Linguistics, Psychoanalysis and Literature and formulate as general objective the wandering of desire and word in Madame Bovary, specifying Emma
Bovary's errant relationship with the word and Wandering of desire through metaphorical processes. This research is theoretical-empirical and the methodology we choose pursues the Freudian trace of the analysis of the literary work "Gradiva - a Pompeian fantasy", whose title was known as "Deliriums and Dreams in Gradiva de Jasen" (1907 [1906]). As the research was a literary work, it was necessary to analyze in two different aspects: one that could essentially contemplate the literary aspect, and the other side, we investigated these same events in the fields of Linguistics and Psychoanalysis. Emma Bovary personifies the figure of a hysteric who, guided by a
not wanting to know, has her life based on repetition, on the return of the signifiers, as if she walked in circles, in a kind of metaphorimic game, searching for what is lacking, impossible to Be assimilated. From the departure of the parents' house to the convent, the return to the paternal home; Of marriage with Charles Bovary to adulteries; And
from city-to-city changes, it was from which we extracted material to analyze the significant death, which in the novel slips over the significant graveyard and poison. The wandering with the word did not allow Emma to suture a point of sufficient, although its avidity by the novels could propitiate this good. In the wandering of desire, drifting, Emma becomes drunk, even in the passions, and slips into suicide.
