abstract="This article discusses the preoccupation with fire, revenge, crucifixion, and other fantasies as they relate to the primal scene. The manifestations of these fantasies are demonstrated in a work of fiction by Yukio Mishima. The Temple of the Golden Pavillion. As is the case in other writings of Mishima there is a fusion of aggressive and libidinal drives and a preoccupation with death. The primal scene is directly connected with pyromania and destructive &quot;acting out&quot; of fantasies. This article is timely with regard to understanding contemporary events of cultural and national destruction.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
