Total Object

The total object is a representation dependant exclusively on one felt.

It is associated with the Depressive position.

The total object is the object of love apprehended like totality, and differs in that from the partial Objet.

The total object can be represented by an individual, an ideal…

It should be noted that the total object does not erase the recourse to the partial objects and that the same feeling can be surdéterminé, that the same person can be invested at the same time like total object and partial Objet.
