This collection is the first extended interrogation in any language of Jacques Lacan's Seminar XVII. Originally delivered just after the Paris uprisings of May 1968, Seminar XVII marked a turning point in Lacan's thought; it was both a step forward in the psychoanalytic debates and an important contribution to social and political issues. Collecting important analyses by many of the major Lacanian theorists and practitioners, this anthology is at once an introduction, critique, and extension of Lacan's influential ideas.The contributors examine Lacan's theory of the four discourses, his critique of the Oedipus complex and the superego, the role of primal affects in political life, and his prophetic grasp of twenty-first-century developments. They take up these issues in detail, illuminating the Lacanian concepts with in-depth discussions of shame and guilt, literature and intimacy, femininity, perversion, authority and revolt, and the discourse of marketing and political rhetoric. Topics of more specific psychoanalytic interest include the role of objet a, philosophy and psychoanalysis, the status of knowledge, and the relation between psychoanalytic practices and the modern university.Contributors.

SIC

series

edited

Slavoj

Žižek

SIC stands for psychoana-lytic interpretation at its most elementary: no dis-covery of deep, hidden meaning, just the act of drawing attention to the litter-ality [sic!] of what pre-cedes it. Asicreminds us that what was said, in-clusive of its blunders, was eﬀectively said and cannot be undone. The series SIC thus explores diﬀerent connections to the Freud-ian ﬁeld. Each volume pro-vides a bundle of Lacanian interventions into a spe-ciﬁc domain of ongoing theoretical, cultural, and ideological-political battles. It is neither ‘‘pluralist’’ nor ‘‘socially sensitive’’; unabashedly avowing its exclusive Lacanian orienta-tion, it disregards any form of correctness but the inherent correctness of theory itself.

Introduction

Much was new in Paris universities in . An old conservative system had been overhauled and restructured following the student uprising of the year before. This included a new, ‘‘experimental’’ university, the Uni-versité de Paris VIII (Vincennes), tucked away in the spacious grounds of the Bois de Vincennes east of Paris. Not least of the innovations of this radical and, in its early days, often fractious university was the new Department of Psychoanalysis, the ﬁrst of its kind in France. The de-partment, overtly Lacanian in orientation—its ﬁrst chairman was Serge Leclaire—was created under the patronage of the Department of Phi-losophy, headed by Michel Foucault. The department itself boasted an impressive list of a new breed of philosophers, including Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Rancière, Alain Badiou, and Jean-François Lyotard. At the same time as this new academic institution was founded, Lacan was obliged to move his seminar from the Ecole Normale Supérieure in the rue d’Ulm (which had hosted his seminar since ), to the Faculté de Droit, located a few hundred meters up the hill, in the Place du Pan-théon. There he continued to attract what was by then a large and ex-tremely diverse audience. Though the social order was no longer on the brink of collapse as it had been in May , contestation was still in the air—on several occasions, Lacan’s seminar was interrupted or even can-celled—and his appearances at the campus at Vincennes proved occa-sions for agitation and protest. It is in this context that Lacan delivered what we know as hisSemi-
