The term "primal scene" in a Freudian psychoanalytic context refers to the sight of sexual act between the parents, as observed or fantasized by the child and interpreted by the child as a scene of violence. The term appeared for the first time in Freud's work apropos of the "Wolf Man" case (1918b [1914]).
Freud interpreted the Pegasus as an expression of the primal scene.
