Jean-Michel Vappereau — Les deux aspects du narcissisme de Freud: à la fois spéculaires et d’autre part géométriques

Part of a series by Vappereau charting the conception of meaning in the subject. While this text is supposedly the third installment in the series, it is the first available text. Vappereau applies geometric principles of extrinsic and intrinsic positions to re-examine the consequences of narcissism articulated by Lacan in the “mirror phase.” Vappereau also helps clarify between specular and non-specular objects qua Lacan.

La logique canonique classique de la coordination a toujours été modale même si les logiciens d’Aristote à Quine dérapent à ce propos et provoquent ce qu’ils ont pu écrire d’hésitant, les faisant tomber dans de graves erreurs.”
