{{Topp}}sadisme]]''/''[[masochisme{{Bottom}}
==Definition==
The terms "[[sadism]]" and "[[masochism]]" were coined by Krafft-Ebing in 1893, with reference to the [[Marquis de Sade]] and Baron Sacher von Masoch. Though the term sadism has a longer [[history]]. It first appears in a [[French]] [[dictionary]] in 1834, just twenty years after the [[death]] of De [[Sade]]. Krafft-Ebing used the [[terms]] in a very specific [[sense]], to refer to a [[sexual]] [[perversion]] in which [[sexual]] [[satisfaction]] is dependent upon inflicting [[pain]] on [[others]] ([[sadism]]) or upon experiencing [[pain]] oneself ([[masochism]]).
==Jacques Lacan==[[Lacan]] too argues that [[sadism]] and [[masochism]] are intimately related, both [[being]] related to the [[drive|invocatory drive]]<ref>{{S11}} p. 183</ref> Both the [[masochist]] and the [[sadist]] locate themselves as the [[object]] of the [[drive|invocatory drive]], the [[voice]]. However, whereas [[Freud]] argues that [[sadism]] is primary, [[Lacan]] argues that [[masochism]] is primary, and [[sadism]] is derived from it: "sadism is merely the [[disavowal]] of masochism."<ref>{{S11}} p. 186</ref> Thus, whereas the [[masochist]] prefers to [[experience]] the [[pain]] of [[existence]] in his own [[body]], the [[sadist]] rejects this [[pain]] and forces the [[Other]] to bear it.<ref>{{Ec}} p. 778</ref> [[Masochism ]] occupies a special [[place ]] among the perversions[[perversion]]s, just as the invoking [[drive ]] occupies a privileged place among the [[drive|partial drivesdrive]]s; it is the '"[[limit]]-experience' " in the attempt to go ''beyond '' the [[pleasure principle]].
===Jouissance===
Although ''[[jouissance]]'' is linked to the [[sensation]] of [[physical]] or [[mental]] [[pain|suffering]], there is an important [[difference]] between [[masochism]] and ''[[jouissance]]''. In [[masochism]], [[pain]] is a means to [[pleasure]]; [[pleasure]] is taken in the very fact of [[pain|suffering]] itself, so that it becomes difficult to distinguish [[pleasure]] from [[pain]]. With ''[[jouissance]]'', on the other hand, [[pleasure]] and [[pain]] remain distinct; no [[pleasure]] is taken in the [[pain]] itself, but the [[pleasure]] cannot be obtained without paying the price of [[pain|suffering]]. It is thus a kind of ''deal'' in which "[[pleasure]] ''and'' [[pain]] are presented as a single packet."<ref>[[Seminar]] of 27 February 1963. J. Lacan, [[The Seminar]]. Book VII: The [[Ethics]] of [[Psychoanalysis]]. p. 189.</ref>
==defSee Also==Sadism{{See}}Sadism is pleasure derived from inflicting cruelty on another person. Richard von Krafft-Ebing coined the term in reference to the writings of the Marquis de Sade. In "Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality" (1905d) Sigmund Freud described sadism as the active form in a pair of opposites, masochism being the passive form of the same sexual perversion.* [[Existence]]Two pregenital libidinal phases are described, the oral-sadistic (or cannibalistic) stage, and the anal-sadistic stage, which remains active during later libidinal development....* [[Drive]]||* [[Perversion]]* [[Pleasure principle]]{{Also}}
