The Author reflects on desire and its role in the complexity of the psyche. Starting from the etymology of the word and its meanings in Freud, Jung and Lacan, she connects desire with the dimension of lack. In psychic dynamism lack and the experience of partiality are essential elements to approach the dimension of desire.

Keywords: Desire, libido, lack, nostalgia, partiality, wholeness
