Shrnutí:The author returns to a little-known reference by Darwin taken up by Freud in Totem and Taboo: Savage’s article on the gorilla. He establishes how Darwin uses it to propose his hypotheses about the origin of man. He shows that Darwin takes into account the way of life of gorillas but also those of other animal species as well as current humans. Darwin inserts it in the debates on law of combat, polygamy, sexual selection, prohibition of incest, descent. Then the author argues that Freud takes Darwin in a different perspective to conceive human access to culture, where the representation of the gorilla remains important.
