what or who is 'the woman'
what or who is 'the lover'

?


According to Lilar, the primordial significances of love are expressed  
through a sort of ceremonial that the lover extends to the woman. This  
ritual, when imprinted with violence and outrage, only ceases to be  
wounding if acted out as a theatre play and when - in the  
disinterestedness of the play - it is reminiscent of primordial  
behaviours.
