[Added: 2025/08/24]The semantic field of jouissance in Lacanian discourse
Jouissance is a term marked by its polysemy in its uses in French. Here I will detail in an incomplete way, partial and partial semantic fields in which Lacan uses this term.
I will note two points in the preamble.
First of all the use made of it in law. The enjoyment of property makes no assumption on the pleasure that the usufructuary may make.
Then the curiosity that I remarked, that this word is lacking in the English tongue so that English speaking psychoanalysts use the French word to talk about it.
In the section 2 We find the modalities of jouissance I've spotted, in the section 3, referrals from the texts written by Lacan, and in the section 4, referrals from a few seminars. Jacques B.Siboni
