On the One and the Pas-Tout: The Analytic Act (Part III)
Pursuing our reflections on the relations between the subject and the collective, and the discourses that organize them, this seminar focuses on the function of the One and the logic of the pas-tout in the analytic discourse. In light of the uniqueness of each analytic act, we will address the relation between universal, particular, and singular in the analytic field, as well as the logical times that mark the unfolding of the treatment - its beginning, the steps-in-the-act and the end of an analysis.
Preliminary Questions for Any Possible Treatment of Psychosis — Adriana Passini (first meeting)
“For psychosis to be triggered, the Name-of-the-Father — verworfen, forclosed, that is, never having come to the place of the Other — must be summoned to that place in symbolic opposition to the subject.” (Lacan, Écrits, p. 577; Norton edition, p. 481)
Dates to be announced
