520 _aThe clinical observation of a child with violent behavior illustrates the problem of omnipotence. The patient’s brief psychotic episodes and his evolution in the group and individual analytical psychodrama also attest to his need to impose his dominance on others. Denis’s perspective on the mastery ( Bemächtigung) could assist in understanding these phenomena. Power and omnipotence are related to narcissism. Omnipotence, created by early narcissistic totalization, presupposes a specific relationship with the object, which leads to the hypothesis of the totalitarian position. The issue is the paradoxical management of omnipotence in the relationship. The subject is still dependent on the object, but this is invested only narcissistically. The subject’s omnipotence is nothing but an illusion maintained by the object, which maintains internal cohesion. Therefore, the omnipotence is not possible without the object, but the subject experiences it as a triumph over the object.
