贈り物の包装から見る、心の空間について

Abstract

This paper analyzes package of gift in order to discuss the space of mind that allows people to be able to think enigma. In Japan, there is a close relationship between the package and the rope. This fact psychologically represents the relationship between container and bond. From a psychoanalytical perspective, when we process the space of mind, we must realize that there has never been a breast. Concrete objects then lose their substances and get transformed into abstract concepts. Despite transformation, something invariant does exist. They are linked with each other and form a class. They are contained in the same space of mind. Similarly, once a concrete object is packaged, it becomes a gift that creates a bond between the giver and receiver. They form a class, and then each of them lose their narcissistic identities and are transformed into an existence determined by the relationship formed by the gift. They then begin to question what is invariant both in themselves and their relationship. Simultaneously, a space of mind is produced not only in the container but also in the existing relationship between the giver and receiver.
