Abstract

MAIA, Maria Angela Mársico  and  CALDAS, Heloisa. Love as a semblant. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2011, vol.63, n.3, pp.107-116. ISSN 1809-5267.

This paper presents love that is referred to as an original loss which leaves a mark on the body. The vicissitudes of love would then aim to be a solution to this irrecoverable loss. Three different and non-excluding Lacanian approaches to the theme of love were considered. They appear in seminars about transference, fundamental psychoanalytical concepts and the jouissance field. First his interest seems to center on finding symbolic and significant love anchors. Later, he directs his attention to locating the real in the object of love. Then he concerns himself with love as a sign, when the object itself becomes a register of the semblant. As a register, love directs itself to the emptiness, because the semblant appears when there is no sexual relationship.

Keywords : Love; Mark; Semblant; Real.
