In the etiological researches about the clinics of neuroses, in particular, of hysteria, Freud founds himself facing an enigma: the problematic of phantasy. Freud legitimizes the hysterics' discourse through a theory, which is abandoned in 1897. He notes that it is a scene, ascribing it psychic reality and comparing its mechanism to the literary creation - setting the phantasies in face of reality and fiction. Starting from a bibliographic review of the Freudian work, recurring to Lacan and other authors, we intend to discuss Freud's early notions about phantasies, highlighting its fictional statute, and, notwithstanding, granted with effectiveness, in order to problematize the phantasy question in its articulation with the psychic reality and notions of literary creation.
