You explained it perfectly. Thank you so much. I look forward to your other videos. 🎉

Happy new year Derek! ✨ and thank you !

Darian leader is my dad lolz

I spot Fanon's 'Wretched of the Earth' in Derek's library

Great video. Thanks for the introduction to John’s work. I just ordered his text on Amazon. I did a podcast episode a while back on the neuroscience of the Lacanian real based on my reading of Zizek’s Sublime Object. I’d love to get some feedback 🙏🏼

4:35 - "idea that there may be some transparency whereby feelings emotions and so on could as it were directly be portrayed or described is something that doesn't sit well with a general psychoanalytic ethos." Why not? You can't describe what you are feeling? The point of description is re-perception, it is a process of seeing anew all that we have overlooked (read: it was unconscious, indeed even on the surface, before our eyes). So this is what Husserl calls "the taken for granted" (imaginary). Remember that Husserl is in Crisis constantly talking about semantic slips. We are hardly closer to psychoanalysis and he even tells us where the place of psychoanalysis is. Returning to lived experience is the equivalent of returning to listening to what the patient is saying. In both cases, it is not a matter of blindly accepting what is said, but of discovering the structure of what is seen/heard, i.e. the conditions of possibility. Gestalt psychology is the predecessor of structuralism. After all, Merleau-Ponty was the first to introduce Saussure into the French scene, for a reason.

Another great video breaking down Lacan!

Thank you for these videos, I have always been interested in Lacan but never could really understand his writings, your videos break these topics down in a way I can better understand, I Appreciate you!

This is so very helpful! We need Part 5!

Man you are a wonderful teacher. The first time i was able to understand lacan. It is very apparent that you are a threapsit yourself and not just abd acadmic. Great work.

You are a great lecturer. Thank you.

Thank you !

The ip address and other things attached to sent things

Thank you for the insights. Lacan truly is an author that can't be grasped in solo.

There is a female author mentioned who wrote a book, and who 'only thereafter wrote poetry', had to change their name and so on. A seminal but unappreciated work. Can I get a reference to the author and title?

I am very resistant to the idea the unconscious is a discourse of the Big Other. I could elaborate, anyway, will still review to see what I learn

Jouissance and the big other they are both relative to our world & our world is tied to words, emotional or psychosomatic states and unconsciousness. Jouissance is still a reflection of our consciousness and unconsciousness unfolding

I finally realize that Jouissance helps explain my interest in videos about justice against corrupt cops (first showing either how they are exposed as wrong, or they ticket, jail an innocent person) but later a lawyer or civic person exposes the second half of the story like how the charges are dropped and the officer has to step down. And my love of AITA posts & videos

Every time he says with the psychotically structured subject I think of a extreme or true narcissist. Bc true narcissists are not open to receiving an input from others they would prefer someone to be this sort of secretary he talks about

~8:50 is the subject is not within th ego, would one say that narcissism operating by from & thru ego, is a repressed or near absolutely displaced subject? I will have to look to see if there are writings or videos on Lacan's view of narcissism

I despise this channel bc every day I learn something new. A new video comes up in my feed & I am compelled to watch it. my perspective of inner world is not the same. Does anyone else experience this? ; )

So I may have to go back to see if this is discussed but what about the example of online forums? For instance in Facebook I follow a person who is representative of a group Native American powow. Every few days I received a Facebook alert Native American powow has mentioned you in a post. Keep in mind that aside from following them and making a comment on a picture I do not know them personally. What I am trying to get at is, sometimes with online posts people seem to Appeal to the Big Other (or at least to a function or aspect of the Big Other) by providing posts and messages then relayed to another entity presumedly bigger than themself (or a couple people) alone - that is they are appealing or sharing that is their thoughts, pictures, art, happenings etc to a larger audience - some of whom (add in some cases all of whom) the person may never actually meet. Or of course they could organize a meet up for a share information about where they're going to be at an event and actually meet some of the people or their online followers or online 'community'. The point is, the person sharing these missives or transmissions seem to be doing so a part of a practice akin to the Big Other - that is the supposed online community or people they are sharing with functions as a Big Other. One which can presumedly support them in their comments, thoughts shared sentiments, or depending on the situation could turn against them. Also there is an element of, I (the origin poster, ie Native American powow in this instance) can share my views, my pain - and by doing so the person can get back sort of pleasure out of it - that is a pleasure in or resultant from sharing their pain - in terms of the other effects & results - so it almost has a component of Jouissance to it. So I believe that there are various aspects of making posts online that are akin to appealing to the Big Other - using online media / forum as mode or content to appeal to the big other

It's nice to see him out in nature with the birds chirping

Wow - Lacan - comprehensible! Thank you so much!

Brilliantly communicated. Enjoyed it immensely. Thank you for the video.

nice talk

“Where is the “other” in the dream”? The addressee ……

brilliant work

thank you for the efforts you are putting in.

Thanks for this as a always. Great clarity.

This is fascinating. I have been reading a lot about healing and the descending into madness (hell) in order to heal. As in, we have to face it to heal it.

Thank you so much for this series. I'm currently on my first rodeo with a friend experiencing psychosis, and this conversation has been affecting. Thank you.

Thank you, Dr. Hook, for such an informative video, but I am wondering with a question in my mind. I mean, what, or I should rather say, how, the image ( ideal ego) how does this ideal ego interact with the symbolic? I mean, the process of subjectivization necessarily involves coming into symbolic, in spite of the violence it involves, but how does that jump from Image to language take place? if you can explain it a bit, that you so much.

substantial insight, thanks a lot. nevertheless couldn’t the specimen dream of psychoanalysis be the one with the motto ‘you are requested to close the eyes’ (november 1896, in letter fifty to flieβ) ? wouldn’t that perhaps match your remarks re: the name-of-the-father (three videos; 2020) ... father always as a dead one according to lacan’s subversion du sujet ? and because one’s father dies our own life’s at risk ... « I now feel quite uprooted » : sort of transgenerational approach to vulnerability & ego scatter. who knows cheers anyway

i think the liberating meaning can only been seen AS subjective destitution, liberation akin to the liberation of electrons off atoms when exposed to ionising radiation, rather than liberation in this immediate political sense.

Perfect

I am free

How can i become Meera's research subject?

God job, please share with us the Google Drive`s file of this part

I would say 70% of people are psychotic. They believe in one or more invisible arbitors that run this whole sh!t show. Only a small portion of these unlive their children because of demon possession. Many people have drug induced psychosis and are better for it. My son that saw his buddy get run over by a grain truck when he was seven and they were playing together never really claimed the subsequent voices he heard helped much.

You boys display a lack, namely lack of not having read the Anti-Oedipus.

19:55 where can i find his autobiography? couldn't quite understand the psychiatrist's name

I think Todd McGowan has made similar remarks around the unconscious being the site of freedom for even non-psychotic people. The death drive can sabotage our rational conformism with the symbolic order in ways that conscious choosing cannot.

great reading. thank you!

Stijn Vanhuele not with k.

Thank you. Very informative!

Interesting... However more refreshing - beyond what I call the Lacanian cult: Deleuze and Gattari Dr. Thomas Szasz "All schools of psycho-therapy are much akin to churches and religions, with therapists as their brainwashed priests -and should never get mixed up with law, let alone the state" T. Szasz was a genius Not a science. Far more a creation of truths through the adaptation and projection / fabrication of top-down conceptual ideas to be spread within academia, culture and upon the world and its people. Eg. Bernays x Freud. The future will be hilarious as soon as A.I. understands how to trick us through all the bs we believe. We are being played out by ANYTHING we believe we freely choose to believe for better or worse.
