In his return to the work of Freud in the fifties, Lacan argued that the subject is born
in the field of the Other. Furthermore, he defined the unconscious as the discourse
of the Other. How can what is most personal to a subject be defined as the discourse
of someone or something else?
This seminar-talk will address some ideas concerning the subject in its double
relation or alienation to the ‘small other’ of the mirror and to the ‘big Other’ of
language.
