Abstract

This text discusses the place and the fonction of the phallus in the Center of psychoanalytical theory: from “the phallic phase of libido’s development” (FREUD, 1923) to “logic schema of sexualization” (LACAN, 1972-73) that distributes those who speak in two sides: “man side” or “all phallic” jouissance and “womn side” or “not-all phallic” jouissance. Two important authors of universal literature, Antonin Artaud and Yukio Mishima, and a thirteen years boy, named Miguel, are invited by the author to illustrate the following themes: the phallus equal zero in the psychosis, the denial of perversion and the phallus transformation into the significant of the desire in neurosis.
