About Lacanian Practice: Ethics, Technique, and the Clinic versus Today's Discontent of Desire
Christian Demoulin
Rejecting the formalism of the IPA, lacanian practice is subject to the technique of Speaking Well. The cure is a dialectical experience aimed at desire which moreover affects jouissance. The analyst engages his or her subjectivity, judgement and desire in the cure. The present day analyst must reinvent his or her practice in order to respond to the effects of jouissance which arise out of capitalist discourse. He or she must guard against reverting to a master discourse and persist in carrying the question of desire .
Key words: Lacan, Practice, Ethical Option, Dialectics, Technics, Subjectivity of the Analyst, Clinic of Jouissance.
The Formation of the Psychoanalyst
Antonio Di Ciaccia
The formation of the psychoanalyst is not the formation of the psychotherapist. On the one side psychoanalysis and psychotherapy are different. On the other side psychoanalysis includes a therapeutical side. But then that the State can see psychoanalysis as a form of psychotherapy – as it is the case in Italy – in fact it is the psychotherapy who receives her place and her validity, as she is inserted by the power of the word, that the field of psychoanalysis defines and circumscribes.
Key words: Formation, Psychotherapy, Psychoanalysis.
There's more than the Real. The so-called Abandonment of the Seduction Theory and the Incest Recovery Movement
Marc De Cuyper
The recognition of the prevalence of incest and sexual abuse, coincides with a new focus on the seduction theory. The person and the work of Freud are vehemently attacked, first and above all by the Incest Recovery Movement. As a rule, their criticisms are embedded in a purely political discourse and consist, for the better part, of personal attacks on Freud. They also fail to recognise the revolutionary character of his discovery: the importance of fantasy in psychic reality, and the phantasmal nature of the working?through of traumatic events. Every notion of fantasy and unconscious conflict is vehemently rejected. The subject is left with no possibility to act and to question his own subjective implication. Here one can only oppose this with the psychoanalytic ethic, which stresses the dimension of speaking well.
Key words: Trauma, Sexual Abuse, Seduction Theory, Incest Recovery Movement, Fantasy.
Che vuoi: About the "Desire of the Analyst"
Josée Roymans
This article investigates the Lacanian notion of the "desire of the analyst". Several topics are discussed concerning this enigmatic desire. First of all, the author argues against the conception that the analyst has no desire to cure. Also discussed is the notion that the views of the analyst about "health" have ethical and technical consequences. The author conceives health here as a matter of wanting to know about one's own unconscious. One of the crucial paths towards this knowledge is via transference, as the encounter between two supposed knowing subjects. The ways in which the transference is evoked, its relationship to love, the paths it follows, its ending and modalities of interpretation are discussed.
Key words: Psychoanalysis, Psychotherapy, Desire of the analyst.
Remembering versus Repeating
Veroniek Knockaert
Taking Kierkegaard, i.e. one of Lacan's main references with respect to the notion of repetition, as a starting point, the author firstly situates this reference in Lacan's seminar. It is argued that Lacan confronts Kierkegaard's notion of repetition with the Platonic idea of reminiscence. Further it is shown that according to Lacan it is repetition rather than reminiscence that structures human experience. Secondly the author revisists Kierkegaard's On repetition (1843) and argues that a sharp distinction should be drawn between Kierkegaard's conception of repetition and the Greek one. Finally it is shown that Kierkegaard's philosophical insights were at odds with the very way in which he faced life (Regine) and death (father).
Key words: Psychoanalysis, Repetition, Remembering, Kierkegaard
Reconstruction of the Symbiotic Origin of the Subject
Jeroen Donckers
The article deals with the idea that the origin of the becoming of the subject is symbiotic. After a historical introduction, this concept is explored as well from a developmental as from a deferred perspective. The insurmountable problems arising during these considerations lead to the conclusion that there is no adequate proof to accept the hypothesis of the symbiosis.
Key words: Symbiosis, Becoming of the Subject, Mother-Child Relationship, Psychic Development.
With Serge Tisseron: Looking for the Family Secret of Hergé
Filip Geerardyn
In this paper Serge Tisseron's analysis of the work of Georges Remi is revisited from a Lacanian point of view. Special attention is paid to the function of the signifier and to the function of narrative in the phenomenon of the transmission of the unsaid. Hergé's questioning of the father is analysed both at the level of the narrative of Les aventures de Tintin (The Adventures of Tintin) and at the level of his biography. It is shown, moreover, that the link between these different narratives is to be found in the signifiers.
Key words: Family Secret, Applied Psychoanalysis, The Unsaid, Tisseron, Hergé.
The Laws of Repetition, A Meditation
Julien
Quackelbeen
In this meditation, the author enumerates, in reference to his clinical practise as well as to his reading of Freud and Lacan, six laws of repetition: 1. repetition is continuous; 2. repetition operates in function of life; 3. repetition does not come down to mere reproduction but exists only through variation; 4. in repetition, smaller and bigger "rounds" are to be differentiated; 5. repetition operates in function of the cruelty of jouissance; 6. when one realizes that, beyond any mastering of the smaller rounds of repetition, the big round finds its way, then it already is too late.
Key
words: Repetition, Reproduction, Variation, Jouissance, Death.
