The Logic of Fantasy in Lacan, by William Marcos, a Brazilian psychoanalyst and philosopher, is the definitive guide for readers who want to understand — in a clear, precise, and rigorously argued way — one of the most enigmatic and decisive concepts in Lacanian psychoanalysis: fantasy (phantasm).
Drawing from Lacan’s main Seminars (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 20), William Marcos presents a complete conceptual path that explains:
how the subject sustains desire,
how the objet a operates within fantasy,
why fantasy structures the subject’s position, and
how it functions as a screen, a logical operator, and a clinical axis.
Moving from Freud to Lacan, with references to Winnicott, the book demonstrates that fantasy:
is an original structure, not a daydream;
functions as a logical montage, not imagination;
supports desire and defines the subject’s relation to the Real;
organizes symptoms, repetition, and defenses;
stands at the center of the Lacanian clinic — the point from which the crossing of fantasy becomes possible.
Written in a didactic yet rigorous style, this unpublished work is ideal both for students of psychoanalysis and psychology, and for experienced clinicians who want to finally clarify — with conceptual precision — one of the most misunderstood themes in Lacanian theory.
This book shows why no other psychoanalytic tradition has produced a structural theory of fantasy comparable to Lacan’s — and why understanding the phantasm means understanding the very heart of the clinic.
Perfect for courses, study groups, supervision, and professional training.
