==Psychoanalysis==Originally introduced into [[psychoanalytic theory]] by [[Jung]] in 191111911, the [[Latin ]] term ''[[imago]]'' had already become standard in [[psychoanalytic ]] [[:category:terms|terminology ]] by the [[time ]] [[Lacan]] began [[training]] as a [[psychoanalyst]] in the 1930s.
==Images==The term is clearly related to the term '"[[image]]'", but it is meant to emphasize the [[subjective ]] determination of the [[image]]; in [[other ]] [[words]], it includes [[feelings ]] as well as a [[visual ]] [[representation]].
[[Imago]]s are specifically images [[image]]s of other [[people]].
However, they are not the product of purely personal [[experience ]] but [[universal ]] prototypes which may be actualized in anyone's [[psyche]].
[[Imago]]s act as sterotypes stereotypes influencing the way the [[subject]] relates to other poplepeople, who are perceived through the lens of these various [[imago]]s.
==Complex==The term "[[imago]]" occupies a central [[role]] in [[Lacan]]'s pre--1950 writings, where it is closely related to the term [[complex]].
==Psychology==In 19381946, [[Lacan]] links each argues that in formulating the [[concept]] of the three family complexes to a specific [[imago: the weaning complex is liked to the iamgo of the maternal breast]], the intrusion complex to the imago [[psychoanalysis]] has provided [[psychology]] with a proper [[object]] of the counterpart, study and the Oedipus complex to the imago of the father.<ref>Lacan. 1938thus set [[psychology]] on a truly [[scientific]] footing.</ref>
[[Lacan]] speaks of the [[imago]] of the [[fragmented body]], and even [[autonomy|unified]] [[imago]]s such as the [[specular image]] are mere [[illusion]]s of [[lack|wholeness]] which introduce an underlying [[aggressivity]].
==Jacques Lacan==
After 1950 the term "[[imago]]" [[disappears]] almost entirely from [[Lacan]]'s [[theoretical]] [[:category:concepts|vocabulary]].
