As a psychological concept, ==Definition==''[[Gestalt refers to our perception of ]]'' is a form whose [[German]] [[word]] [[meaning exceeds the totality ]] an organized pattern or [[whole]] which has properties [[other]] than those of its components--a Gestalt is always greater than the sum of its partsin [[isolation]].
Gestalt psychology is founded on The experimental study of [[gestalt]]s began in 1910 with the observation that we do not comprehend our world as an assemblage study of certain phenomena of disparate elements[[perception]], but and led to a [[school]] of [[thought]] known as "[[gestalt]] [[psychology]]" which was based on a pattern holistic [[concept]] of [[mind]] and [[body]] and which stressed the [[psychological]] importance of meaningful forms[[body]] presentation.
Our understanding These [[ideas]] formed the basis of a "home", for example[[Gestalt]] [[therapy]] as developed by [[Paul]] Goodman, is derived from more than merely the materials Fritz Perls and architectural plans that produce the physical "houseRalph Hefferline."
A "face" ==Jacques Lacan==When [[Lacan]] refers to the [[gestalt]], he refers specifically to one kind of oganized pattern, namely the [[visual]] [[image]] of [[another]] member of the same [[species]], which is likewise more than perceived as a collection of identifiable parts[[unified]] [[whole]].
For Lacan, the Such an [[image]] is a [[imagogestalt]] with because it has an effect which the infant identifies none of its component parts have in the isolation; this effect is to act as a "releasing [[mechanism]]" ([[French]]: ''déclencheur'') which triggers certain [[instinct]]ual responses, such as [[reproductive]] [[mirror stagebehavior]] is a kind of Gestalt. <ref>{{S1}} p. 121f</ref>
The infant recognizes not only that ==Animals==In other [[words]], when an [[animal]] perceives a [[unified]] [[image]] of another member of its species, it responds in certan [[instinct]]ual ways. [[Lacan]] gives many examples from [[ethology]] of such [[instinct]]ual responses to [[images]], but his main interest is in the way the [[gestalt]] functions in [[human]] beings. ==Human Beings==For [[human]]s the [[body]] [[image]] is also a particular shape[[gestalt]] which produces [[instinct]]ual responses, especially [[sexual]] ones, but the [[power]] of the [[image]] is also grasps more than merely [[instinct]]ual; it constitutes the essential captivating [[power]] of the [[specular image]] (see [[captation]]). ==Fragmented Body==It is by [[identifying]] with the [[unified]] [[gestalt]] of the [[body]] [[image]] that this shape has a special--the [[ego]] is constantly threatened by [[fear]]s of [[fragmented body|disintegration]], which [[manifest]] themselves in fact transformative[[image]]s of the [[fragmented body]]; these [[image]]s [[represent]] the opposite of the [[unified]] [[gestalt]] of the [[body]] [[image]]. ==See also=={{See}}* [[Ego]]* [[Fragmented body]]||* [[Identification]]* [[Instinct]]||* [[Mirror stage]]* [[Specular image]]{{Also}} ==References==<div style="font-size:11px" class="references-significance.small"><references/></div> [[Category:Freudian psychology]][[Category:Psychoanalysis]][[Category:Language]][[Category:Development]][[Category:Dictionary]][[Category:Concepts]][[Category:Terms]]{{OK}} __NOTOC__
