J Laplanche

    |August 1, 1995
    PubMed
    Summary

    Seduction is a real situation, not a fantasy, central to primal scenes like castration. The study emphasizes the irreducible message from the other, distinct from psychological projection, in seduction, paranoia, and revelation.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychoanalysis
    • Psychology
    • Philosophy

    Background:

    • The traditional view of seduction as fantasy is challenged.
    • Primal scenes like castration and the primal scene are re-examined.
    • The concept of 'reality' in psychoanalytic theory requires redefinition.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To reposition seduction as a 'real' situation, not merely a fantasy.
    • To introduce a third category of reality: the enigmatic message.
    • To analyze Freud's Schreber case through the lens of the 'message from the other'.

    Main Methods:

    • Re-examination of Freud's analysis of the Schreber case.
    • Analysis of the concept of the 'enigmatic message'.
    • Exploration of Fichte's concept of 'Bekanntmachung' (announcement).

    Main Results:

    • Seduction is argued to be a fundamental 'real' situation.
    • A distinct reality of the 'message conveyed' is postulated, separate from material or psychological reality.
    • Freud's analysis of the Schreber case reveals the importance of the 'sexual other' and the 'message'.

    Conclusions:

    • The message from the other is irreducible to subject projection.
    • This concept applies to primal seduction, paranoia, and religious revelation.
    • Psychoanalytic theory needs to account for the reality of the enigmatic message.
