In Psychoanalysis, one calls primal phantasies ( urphantasien in German) in the imaginary scenarios, of order Inconscient, commun runs with all the human ones. The Mythe S, like some Rêve S, put in scene these antiquated images, that the first experiments of the analytical cure made it possible to identify like essential as organizing a fantasmatic life and like indifferent to the personal experiences of each one.

The origin of the primal phantasies was the subject of a wide-ranging debate which opposed Freud to several of its pupils. Among those, Jung emitted the idea that the primal phantasies concerned a phylogenic tendency: it acts, according to him, of prototypes , i.e. of images composing the Inconscient collective. Freud disputed the relevance of this concept: if the myths, the dreams, can express universal phantasms symbolically, the images themselves cannot constitute a genetic inheritance. It rather made rise these imaginary scenes from the experiment of real scenes which have occurred in infancy, and their universality owing to the fact that these scenes are, according to him, early or late pareillement lived by each and everyone.

Scene of seduction

• principal Articles: Theory of seduction, Neurotica

The scene of seduction, worked out by Sigmund Freud in its comprehension of the Hysteria, is the imaginary explanation of the origin of the Sexualité.

Initially, Freud saw the origin of this imaginary phantasm in the real scene of a Viol undergone in childhood, which led it to regard the rape as very frequent. It reconsidered later the relevance of such a design. Sándor Ferenczi will wonder about this renouncement, thinking that this scene can well, in certain cases, to have for origin authentic experience.

Phantasm of castration

• principal Articles: Anguish of castration, Penis envy

The phantasm of castration is primal phantasies (unconscious idea common to the whole of human) according to which any individual is originally equipped with a penis, the little girl then seeming having been castrated. The woman thus saw, unconsciously, in to be castrated anguish and the man in that of the risk to be castrated: all the female behavior is justified by the unconscious desire to recover the penis lost (which is translated in the conscious one by a fuzzy will of filling a lack); that of the man, is justified to him by the unconscious desire to preserve its male member (desire who is translated in the conscious one by a “fight of honor” against any risk of amputation of his integrity).

Freud sees the origin of this phantasm in an actual fact which has occurred in early childhood: it is by noting the anatomical difference of the sexes and while wondering about the origin of this difference that the child works out the fanstame castration, then acquires the distresses which results from this.

Primal scene

The primal scene (or primitive scene) described a sexual relation between the parents in the subject, that the subject would see by interpreting it like aggression of the mother by the father.

Intra-uterine life

The life will intra uterine is initially included/understood like paradise lost . Ferenczi will theorize several stages of Toute-puissance, of which that of any real power: fetal life.
