You know when Lacan spoke he used silence.a lot.I think you should ! Go get yourself Lacan for beginners because this is a bad explanation, your use of language is so sloppy and your tone flippant.
@hothe65 . It sounds like what you want is to read a book or maybe listen to an incredibly boring lecture with lots of pauses and gravely-delivered self-important twaddle. There are plenty of those about Lacan out there at universities already, and distressingly few of them are flippant. That said, I would be interested to read any specific factual corrections to my explanation you would care to offer, as long as you get a fourth grader to check your punctuation first.
I only have a few things to say: first: you are trying to explain decades of lacanian theories in ten minutes?? obviously it will generate missunderstanding.
Second, it seems that althought your good intentions you need to reed and study more. I think You didn't understand lacan`s developes and his concepts in the right way.
I do not mean to trouble, but i think you are confusing these people.
I don't like saying mean things just for the sake of it, and I don't like people who hide behind the internet. I'm sure you mean well, but I can't help myself... you are annoying. For the sake of your soul, stop being so annoying.
@puckrod Oh dear, I forgot I wrote this... in my defense I was sleep deprived and you were annoying me. I do apologise. (Although, if I may take the liberty to comment upon your response, it doesn't really make any sense, I would hardly describe myself as self-hating and nor is there any transparency to the matter, and secondly, there's not much logic in the premise that what annoys those who self hate is neccesserily good. I'm just saying, although I probably should just apologise and shut up.)
From Wikipedia François Roustang called it an "incoherent system of pseudo-scientific gibberish," and quoted linguist Noam Chomsky's opinion that Lacan was an "amusing and perfectly self-conscious charlatan". To Dolto, "Lacan was like a narcissistic and wayward child... All he thought about was himself and his work".Now Françoise Dolto is no stupid. Lacan may have been trying to get over the military rejection, he may have been describing himself. who knows???
absolutely excellent presentation on Lacan, you really helped me understand what I needed to in order to further an assignment of mine so thanks very much!!
Hey this Lacan psychoanalysis thing is new to me and I have been trying to find a informative video on this subject for the past few days but haven't had much luck. Have to say this is one of the best videos I've seen so far on the subject.
Really good breakdown and explanation of Lacan theories presented in a way that's really easy for idiots like me to understand.
I understand the Lacanian concept of the 'Big Other'. But what is this object petit a? Zizek, in his usual pop culture manner, describes it via a horror film as that "little piece of flesh hidden behind the ear of the humanoid' Some 'thing' in the human which causes us distress, like Alcbiades love of Socrates..something he can never quite explain or put his finger on, and causes him distress. But you describe the concept in quite a different way...
@phcou the object a, is an abstraction to point something unknown, it's like the x in mathematics. This object structure the central fantasy in a human psyché... excuse my english but i don't speak very well... you can consult: Lacan's four fundamental concepts of psychoanalysis: an introduction Par Roberto Harari. For many philosophes, Lacan is considered like a scientist mystic.Claude Levi's Strauss, a anthropologist that founded the structural anthropology. Lacan = structural psicoanalisis
Hey, nice video. You mispronounced "Lacan" and "boRRomean knot"... but your grasp of basic Lacanian concepts makes up for that. Perhaps using popular culture and cinema to explain Lacan might be a good idea for a follow-up video? Theorist Slavoj Zizek makes Lacan accessible in this way. Maybe you can do a video on Zizek? Just some suggestions. Keep up the good work.
if we substitute on the sketch (4:28) real=reality , imaginary=utopia , symbolic = heterotopia , what would the symptom be? political revolution?
Foucault did some significant work which had traps at the points that Deleuze tried to sketch out. What comes after? Badiou?

it wont let me provide links, google "of other spaces, heterotopia" and "badiou interviews foucault" on utube

@BBROCKAT this is a copy/paste of someone else's generalized bitching and moaning. I don't like plagiarism so i'm deleting it.

@Samgurney88 thanks for the compliment! if I am annoying to someone as transparently self-hating as yourself, I must be doing something right.
