Perversion and the universal law
Regression to the anal-sadistic phase brings about the erosion of the double difference between the sexes and the generations—of all differences, in fact—and this regression seems to be consubstantial with perversion. In it the anal-sadistic phase appears not as just a specific mode of pregenital organization, but as a sort of protogenitality or pseudo-genitality in which objects, erotogenic sources and pleasures are adapted to the child’s potent…
Dimensions of Psychoanalysis
Sexuality and Mind
This book examines the role of the Oedipus complex in the psyche and relates it to urgent issues of social life, historical and current. It discusses the theory of sexual phallic monism and its most important consequences, and some essential points of Freud's work on female sexuality
Body and Cosmos
1. The Dismembered Body "The human body was entering a machinery of power that explores it, breaks it down, and rearranges it."— Michel Foucault, Discipline and Punish On March 2, 1757, Robert-François Damiens, who attempted to kill King Louis XV with a penknife, was condemned as a regicide "to make the amende honorable before the main door of the Church of Paris," where he was to be "taken and conveyed in a cart, wearing nothing but a shirt, hol…
Film Review Essay
Woman's social status as a reflection of the internal relationship to mother and father in both sexes1
Starting with three examples showing different kinds of external barriers which meet a woman in her professional life, the author examines how they are related to internal elements. She points out power as a common factor, and proposes that Freud, as well as many succeeding male and female psychoanalysts, wishfully described women as suffering from deficiencies, while the unconscious image of Mother in children and adults of both sexes is the ver…
Some Thoughts on the Psychoanalytic Situation
This article develops ideas set out in a previous study on the “archaic matrix of the Oedipus complex” versus the fully developed Oedipus complex (their similarities and their differences), applying these to a study of the psychoanalytic situation. The central hypothesis is that there is a correspondence between the psychoanalytic situation and the structure of the mental apparatus. The author supposes that our perception of the world is intimate…
Reflexions on some Thought Disorders in non-Psychotic Patients. Certain Disturbances of Thinking in Individuals and Groups
From the Archaic Matrix of the Oedipus Complex to the Fully Developed Oedipus Complex
The opposition between the "archaic matrix of the oedipus complex" and the fully developed oedipus complex leads the author to compare two distinct types of patients: those who do not conform to the neurotic model (patients who probably witnessed and were the victims of disintegration of the family and the effacement of the father's image) and the neurotic patient for whom Freud's discovery was intended. The consequences of differences of organiz…

Loss of Reality in Perversions-With Special Reference to Fetishism
Some Thoughts on the Ego Ideal a Contribution to the Study of the ‘Illness of Ideality’
Man searches continuously for the time when he was his own ideal--a time that is coincident with primary fusion with the mother. The fantasy of this fusion underlies the incest wish. Because of his helplessness, the child must postpone the realization of his incest wish and project it forward into the future. However, if the subject chooses the pathway of the oedipus complex and identification with the father to realize his incestuous fantasy, ci…
Female Sexuality
Female Sexuality
Female Sexuality represents a distinct contribution to the psychoanalytic study of feminine psychology and sexual identity. First published in France as Recherches psychanalytiques nouvelles sur la sexualite feminine, the book consists of six major essays and a comprehensive introduction which reviews the various approaches to the subject. Freudian and non-Freudian views on female sexuality are carefully examined, thus providing a valuable perspe…
