Sažetak
Psychoanalytic explanation and understanding of psychosomatic illness and somatic
symptoms can, in the broadest sense, be viewed through two main approaches; one that
views the symptom as a product of psychic conflict (with its underlying unconscious fantasies)
and another that emphasizes a deficiency in the patient’s psychological structure
and capacity for symbolic functioning. Both approaches can be linked to the way somatic
symptoms are viewed in the context of the psychoanalytic symbol and symbolic function.
This paper provides a concise overview of the concept of symbolism and symbolization in
psychoanalytic theory, as well as a theoretical view of the role and function of symbolism
and symbolization in the understanding of psychosomatic illness.
