ABSTRACT

The way to go will be transit through the proposals of the phantom just like J. Lacan indicates, to locate the child as specter and look into the clinical implications of the positioning. With the arrival of Judeo-Christianity, the polytheistic world of hordes and tribes moved toward a monotheistic space. According to Donald Winnicott, in the child’s emotional development, the mother’s face is what precedes the mirror. The child feels when the mother sees him and connects with him. According to Winnicott, illusion is the main function of the object and the transitional phenomena that constitute the basis of the start of the experience. Lacan recognizes that the objet petit a has a debt to the Winnicottian transitional object, without getting to be a continuity of it, and without being a linear repercussion. Recalcati observes that the miira search for the perfect, uncorrupted body in mummification, the challenge to death.
