Based on the relationship between the terms face, body and object in psychoanalytic theory, the purpose of this paper is try to situate the body in the Theory of Discourses. In this direction, we intent to clarify the function of the lost object, as collected by Lacan from freudian's text, to establish the status of the object that supports the image and its relation to the enjoyment - understood here as satisfaction that transcends the limits of pleasure as a principle.
