• Abstract:

  The subject repeats, as continuously as it is unknown, the way in which he responds to what is inscribed as traumatic, just as Freud situates the reality of trauma in 1920. This excess that escapes him is placed as an incessant repetition of the impossible to be represented through language, it is the real as a missing encounter, named as tiquê by Lacan in 1964. From these freudian references on the real of trauma in lacanian work, we aim to draw a possible analogy between traumatic dreams, anxiety dreams and the horror caused in the reader of Contos Fantásticos, as well as to analyze the point at which the writer of fantastic tales seeks to create horror causing an intellectual uncertainty in the one who reads, not knowing if he is facing the real or a fiction. This theoretical work with an investigative purpose has a psychoanalytical framework and takes as its object a reading of some concepts in Freudian and Lacanian work, such as traumatic, graph of desire and object of the Other's desire. We intend to bring as an illustration the comparison of the dream concepts of the burning son in Freud's The Interpretation of Dreams and Hoffmann's Fantastic Tale, the Sandman. As a result, we can conclude that both this example and the narrative structure of Hoffmann's Fantastic Tale can demonstrate the subject's estrangement as the object of the Other's desire, the missing encounter, the astonishment and the possibility of presenting the other scene, our unconscious.
