==DefinitionDisappearance of Desire==The literal [[meaning ]] of this Greek term is '''disappearance'''. It was first introduced into [[psychoanalysis]] by [[Ernest Jones]], who uses it to mean "the [[disappearance]] of [[sexual]] [[desire]]."<ref>[[Jones]], Ernest. 1927. "Early [[Development]] of [[Female]] [[Sexuality]]" in ''Papers on Psychoanalysis'' (5th edn), Baltimore: Williams & Wilkins, [[1948]].</ref> For Jones, the [[fear]] of [[aphanisis]] [[exists]] in both [[sex]]es, giving rise to the [[castration complex]] in [[male|boys]] and to [[penis envy]] in [[female|girls]].
It was first introduced into ==Disappearance of the Subject==[[psychoanalysisLacan]] by takes up Jones's term, but modifies it substantially. For [[Ernest JonesLacan]], who uses it to ''[[aphanisis]]'' does not mean "the [[disappearance]] of [[sexualdesire]], but the [[disappearance]] of the [[desiresubject]]."<ref>Jones, Ernest{{S11}} p. 1927. "Early Development of Female Sexuality" in 208</ref> The ''Papers on Psychoanalysis[[aphanisis]]'' (5th edn)of the [[subject]] is the [[fading]] of the [[subject]], Baltimore: Williams & Wilkins, 1948the fundamental [[division]] -- or [[split]] -- of the [[subject]] which institutes the [[dialectic]] of [[desire]].<ref>{{S11}} p.221</ref>
For Jones, ==Neurosis==Far from the [[feardisappearance]] of [[aphanisisdesire]] exists in both [[sexbeing]]es, giving rise to the [[castration complexobject]] of [[fear]] in , it is precisely what the [[male|boysneurotic]] and to aims at; the [[penis envyneurotic]] in attempts to shield himself from his [[female|girlsdesire]], to put it aside.<ref>{{S8}} p.271</ref>
Total extinction ==Fading==[[Lacan]] also uses [[another]] term, "[[fading]]," in a way that makes it synonymous with the term ''[[aphanisis]]''. [[Fading]] (a term which [[Lacan]] uses directly in [[English]]) refers to the [[disappearance]] of the capacity for sexual enjoyment[[subject]] in the [[process]] of [[alienation]].
Extinction de la capacité de jouissance. ==Aphanisis and Jacques LacanMathemes==[[Lacan]] takes up Jones's term, but modifies it substantially.  For [[Lacan]], [[aphanisis]] does not mean the [[disappearance]] of [[desire]], but the [[disappearance]] of the [[subject]].<ref>{{S11}} 208</ref> The [[aphanisis]] of the [[subject]] is the [[fading]] of the [[subject]], the fundamental [[division]] - or [[split]] - of the subject which institutes the [[dialectic]] of [[desire]].<ref>{{S11}} p.221</ref> Far from the [[disappearance]] of [[desire]] being the [[object]] of [[fear]], it is precisely what the [[neurotic]] aims at; the [[neurotic]] attempts to shield himself from his [[desire]], to put it aside.<ref>{{S8}} p.271</ref> [[Lacan]] also uses another term, "[[fading]]," in a way that makes it synonymous with the term ''[[aphanisis]]''.  [[Fading]] (a term which [[Lacan]] uses directly in [[English]]) refers to the [[disappearance]] of the [[subject]] in the process of [[alienation]].  The term is used by [[Lacan]] when describing the [[mathemes]] of the [[drive]] and of [[fantasy]]: the [[subject]] '"[[fades]]' " or '"[[disappears]]' " in the face of [[demand]] and in the face of the [[object]], as is shown by the fact that the [[subject]] is [[bar]]red in these [[matheme]]s.
