  • Title: Phantasy effects that which it represents.
    Author: Symington N.
    Journal: Int J Psychoanal; 1985; 66 ( Pt 3)():349-57. PubMed ID: 4044123.
    Abstract:
    This paper sets out to show that phantasy does not just inhabit a mental realm within the individual. With the help of some clinical examples, it tries to demonstrate that phantasy is itself an active agent, so that the image within the phantasy is brought into effect through a subtle stimulation of the social environment. The paper ends by suggesting the way in which this can happen.
