The Psychoanalytic Quarterly, 1987
The concept of "rescue fantasy" is examined as it has evolved since Freud introduced it in 1910. Originally designating the wish in certain men to rescue "fallen women," the term has more recently come to refer primarily to the therapist's conscious or unconscious aims with regard to his patient, particularly in the context of child analysis or therapy.

This chapter examines Slavoj Žižek’s theorizations of ideological fantasy and its different manifestations or veils (Žižek 1997: 1–35). We begin (Section 1) by recalling the fundamental coordinates of Freud’s, then Lacan’s, conceptions of fantasy, allowing a theoretical lineage to be established that accounts for Žižek’s coaptation and extension of ...

This chapter slowly teases apart a psychoanalytic notion of fantasy from the more common parlance, to illustrate not simply the differences between “fantasy and fantasy,” but also their antagonism. While common everyday fantasy is always on some level a site of freedom—or at least its image—psychoanalytic fantasy is a site of bondage and constraint, a ...

This chapter discusses the key concepts and logic that undergird the remainder of the book. Given that they come centrally from Freud, Laclau and Mouffe, Žižek, and, above all, Lacan, this does not make for the easiest reading.

This is precisely what Hasselhoff, Rostropovich, and Bernstein were trying to do, consciously and unconsciously: to show this perpetual present coming into being by putting on a show.
