"Le Moi comme fiction résulte de la confrontation dans le miroir du sujet et de la distance qui le sépare de ses images ; la fiction provient encore de la structure du sujet, qui, dès lors, s’avère." Jacques Lacan, Grande Encyclopédie Larousse, Éd. 1971-1976

“This idea of #philosophy as the unlimited jouissance of a thought that knows no empirical restraints…” (Ghassan Hage channeling #Lacan although he credits Derrida for this thought - why?!) ✨
When you are at a stage in your academic career at which all that is being said about an author (in my case #Lacan) sounds familiar & begins to sound repetitive, it’s time to go back to the original texts of that author & reread them until you find sth. new that has not been or has been less said…
Desire, for #Lacan is always the Other’s desire. It is what keeps us entwined beings, guessing what it is the other wants from me. Needs and demands are satisfiable, desire is not. It should not be, it is what keeps us alive. There would be no love without desire: to give what one does not have!
Jouissance is a term #Lacan sets apart from need, demand and desire. Need refers to the sheer biological necessity (eg. humans need food), demand refers to want (e.g. “I want chocolate!”) and desire is what you get when you subtract need from demand.

Che cosa intendiamo quando parliamo di sguardo nel cinema? Per Lacan non si tratta del punto di vista dello spettatore o del personaggio sullo schermo, ma del sintomo che attraversa il campo visivo: il punto in cui realtà e fantasma si confondono e l’inconscio irrompe nell’immagine, aprendo la possibilità a un’etica che va oltre il soggetto della visione

There’s one Lacan reference in this Trump-text and it’s on “feigning” which is, however, taken out of context. #Lacan talked about how animals lay false tracks, but can’t “feign feigning”. He did not speak about humans and so I guess the author read Žižek or Derrida,who do, not Lacan #psychoanalysis

Das eigentlich Interessante an der “Verrohung” der Sprache ist die ihr zugrundeliegende Unwirksamkeit der symbolischen Ordnung. Aber das hat #Lacan seit 1960 schon konstatiert - es nimmt nur weiter zu. Psychoanalytisch betrachtet ist #Metaphernsalat das blablabla vaterloser (Funktion!) „Kinder“.
