“The incest barrier protects and nourishes desire”. This particularly enlightening assertion was made by Serge Leclaire on Wednesday 27 January 1965 during the first closed seminar of Dr.. Jacques Lacan whose theme of the year was the crucial problems for psychoanalysis.
During this workshop we will try with the help of Pierre Belon to analyze what this sentence conveys to us.

As a follow-up to the workshop #58 devoted to the concept of subject for Hegel, here are elements of the Lacanian conception of the subject. However, as this theme is too ambitious to fit in less than two hours, three or four relationships remained in the shadows.

Once a month a Lacanian topological clinic workshop is held.
Important note for our English-speaking colleagues : the sessions marked in brown and by the mention [EN] have English subtitles. They are now accessible both in the First Source on Lutecium and in the YouTube version.
Pay attention to their quality : these subtitles were produced by automatic recognition of French speech, then translated into English. The first step — transcription of spoken French — sometimes contains many errors, which are necessarily found in the English translation. These subtitles must therefore be considered as a help for understanding, and not as a transcription or reference translation.

Emmanuel Brassat develops before us, in its complexity, the concept of subject for Hegel. This workshop describes the subject using a Hegelian philosophical approach. This is the first part of two workshops on the subject. It will be in the session number 59 this same notion as it was introduced by Lacan, follower of Freud.

Three narcissisms and three forms of identification. With the help of these approaches we return to the passage of an object of reality which becomes an object of desire when the human appropriates it.. It is also underlined the particular importance of the first narcissism and the first identification which condition the anaclitism of the subject..

This film by Martin McDonagh describes the inhabitants of a small island in Ireland at the end of the war between Protestants and Catholics in 1923. In this community, no psychiatrist, no recognition of any mental illness. Even a gravissimo autumutilation is not recognized as the sign of psychotic tips. This leads us to question the roles of the psychiatrist and the psychoanalyst in the city, from their absence.

Emmanuel Brassat was kind enough to tell us about the notion of the four causalities that Aristotle introduced. The material cause, the formal cause, the efficient cause, the final cause.
