Summary/Abstract: This article offers two hypotheses of critical reading of The eternal child, which are based on the concept of the imaginary in its meaning in semiotics, as the space of the fantastical and of the unreal, and in psychoanalysis, as the register of the ego and of specular identity (Lacan’s theory).
