초록

Lee, Young-Zun. “On the Desire and the Imaginary Fantasy in Peter Pan and Wendy.” Studies in English Language & Literature. 42.4 (2016): 115-134. For children, fairy tales are a kind of the Imaginary spaces in that their desires play active roles as the protagonists. The Imaginary fantasy provides an imaginative way of their escaping from the Symbolic castration. However, while children enjoy their fantasies, their true selves are alienated. In Wendy's Imaginary fantasy, Peter Pan emerges as an object a by which she resolves her wishes and desires; he annihilates all the repressed and distorted energies which James Hook insinuates. Peter Pan is Wendy's ego ideal, that is, her mirror image. In the narcissistic fantasy, Peter Pan is her, and she is him. He is also an archetype image, working as a kind of psychic cathexis. However, he is created as an Imaginary veil to hide the lack of her subjectivity. Thus, Peter Pan's mirror image becomes the unconscious core of both Wendy's construction of her ideal self and her Imaginary fantasy based on it, while she is lured, seduced and alienated by her false image.

Abstract

Lee, Young-Zun. “On the Desire and the Imaginary Fantasy in Peter Pan and Wendy.” Studies in English Language & Literature. 42.4 (2016): 115-134. For children, fairy tales are a kind of the Imaginary spaces in that their desires play active roles as the protagonists. The Imaginary fantasy provides an imaginative way of their escaping from the Symbolic castration. However, while children enjoy their fantasies, their true selves are alienated. In Wendy's Imaginary fantasy, Peter Pan emerges as an object a by which she resolves her wishes and desires; he annihilates all the repressed and distorted energies which James Hook insinuates. Peter Pan is Wendy's ego ideal, that is, her mirror image. In the narcissistic fantasy, Peter Pan is her, and she is him. He is also an archetype image, working as a kind of psychic cathexis. However, he is created as an Imaginary veil to hide the lack of her subjectivity. Thus, Peter Pan's mirror image becomes the unconscious core of both Wendy's construction of her ideal self and her Imaginary fantasy based on it, while she is lured, seduced and alienated by her false image.
