Abstract: Narcissism is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon shaped by early experiences and with a significant impact on a person's relationships and overall well-being. Psychoanalysis invites us to a more comprehensive approach to narcissism that includes both individual and social dimensions and provides a valuable framework for understanding and treating narcissistic disorder, allowing patients to explore unconscious conflicts and develop more adaptive ways of relating to themselves and others. In the articles in this issue, the authors explore in personal research, primary narcissism but also the influence of the environment that favors the development of secondary narcissism, analyzing the link between narcissism and reality testing, that between narcissism and personal idiom, between transgenerational trauma and how it affects narcissism, all of these studies are anchored in the reality of today but also in the mythological universe.
