Abstract
LUCERO, Ariana. The notion of das Ding in Jacques Lacan. Psicol. clin. [online]. 2009, vol.21, n.2, pp.271-283. ISSN 0103-5665.
The present article aims to explicit the Lacanian usage of the notion of das Ding extracted from Freud's ([1895] 1995) Entwurf einer Psychologie. We will also try to show at what point das Ding can clarify important aspects of Lacan's work, such as the relationship of the infant with the Other, as well as the statute of the latter; and the question of the translation of the term Vorstellungsrepräsentanz to presentation-of-representation.
Keywords : das Ding; Lacan; Entwurf; Other; Vorstellungsrepräsentanz.
