Our starting point will be the idea that focusing on a so called symbol in a psychoanalytical treatment often results in a narrow-minded interpretation. By dealing with Saussure's linguistic definition of the symbol conception we stress the fact that it is most necessary in the clinical work to involve other linguistic phenomena which
could underlie a given word or symbol also meaning the way in which the linguistic expressions (signifiers) form metonymies or metaphors. These linguistic aspects can class with the symbolic (Jacques Lacan) which also puts into perspective the meaning of the idea of the phallus which often appears in psychoanalysis which
must not however be seen as a symbol but as a signifier regulating the subject's desire and jouissance.

Ophavsret er tidsskriftets og forfatternes. Det er gældende praksis, at artikler publiceret i Psyke & Logos, som efterfølgende oversættes til andet sprog, af forfatteren frit kan publiceres i internationale tidsskrifter, dog således at det ved reference fremgår, at den oversatte artikel har et forlæg i en dansksproget version i Psyke & Logos. Artikler kan frit deles og linkes til på forsknings- og undervisningsnetværk (så som Blackboard). Link foretrækkes, fordi det giver oplysning om brug af tidsskriftets artikler.
