*While the Real cannot be cured, the main purpose of Lacanian psychoanalysis is to dismantle the specular image, which begins in the mirror stage, loosening its narcissistic fixation on itself, to recognise our fundamental relationship with the other, which is ultimately, what we really are.*

This is easily the best 10 min summary on Lacan one can watch, very good work. Very good foundation to then dig deeper.
This is so helpful! I love psychoanalysis but Lacan is a difficult nut for me to crack. Definitely felt some things click while watching this, will have to rewatch many times:)
Hello, Congratulations, you've grown quiet a lot since we last spoke. Well deserved and much more to come. I silently admire all your videos (and share them immensely), and they being one of the reasons why I decided to switch to studying philosophy formally.
I really respect your work and this video (along with your videos on Nietzsche and Dostoevsky.) is the richest, most complex, and informative out of them all.
Since this came out, I've been watching it and this is my fourth watch. This is by far your most informative and visually most stunning video. It look me six pages of notes to understand it and well worth it.
First of all, I'll just derail into telling you how important these "10 minute" videos are, especially in a time where people lack the attention span and investment of time to try to understand these complex ideas. You are doing your part in making philosophy and psychoanalysis accessible to anybody. Especially, when philosophy as per the mainstream has lost its relevance. Congratulations, on the tremendous feat that you have been achieving.
Back to the video, I feel you were onto something very profound when you were talking about certain things like: the Ego made of alienating unconsciously adopted ideas and attitudes which one is subjected to, "The Desire of the Other;" the miss recognition which happens throughout our lives; how linguistical dynamics play a role in shaping our dependence on the imaginary; dependence of the imaginary on the symbolic, the Heideggerian Throwness; the Big Other being a network of interlinked signifiers that delicts the analytical unconscious; the paradox of the Real helping us function, as well as function properly; then lastly, when you spoke about later Lacan adding the fourth register - Sinthome. You're definitely on to something here.
I had a question, which texts did you read to prepare this video? Did you look at Lacan himself directly, or through someone like Zizek, who also has a great interpretation of him as well? Was he easy to read?
Lastly I'll give my suggestion here, as someone who loves your channel immensely and knows the important role you're playing to make these ideas accessible and that too free.
The suggestion are-
1. Please do more videos on Lacan and his "return to Freud," also, Lacan's reading of Hegel and so on. Also the topics I mentioned above.
2. Some videos on Hegel would be really helpful, for he's the most complicated thinker ever to exist. Things like the theory of alienation in the Phenomenology, dialectical materialism, Negation of Negation, Hegel's critique of Kant, synthesis emerging from an antagonism of thesis and antithesis, Spirt and mind and so on.
3. Videos on Immanuel Kant's metaphysics. For Kant started the German Idealism, which Hegel completed. The Phenomenon and the Noumenon, concepts, transcendental idealism and so on. For me personally, Kant (along with Plato and Aristotle) is the most important figure in the history of philosophy.
In general, I will be indebted to you if a mind like yours goes into German Idealism. I think there's a lot for you to take from there.
4. Lastly, I would be grateful if you did some videos on Slavoj Zizek, who is arguably the greatest philosopher alive today and along with philosophy, him also having a PhD in Psychoanalysis also makes his works richer by interpreting the same issue through philosophical and psychoanalytical (also socio-politcal) lens. For me your channel is primarily philosophy and you being one of the greatest philosophy channels on UA-cam, should definitely do videos on the greatest philosopher alive today. I think you'll find a lot there, in his dialectical materialism and his reading of Hegel, Lacan, how he explains complex systems through the help of movies, fiction novels, often jokes. Also, his greatest book, (more than a thousand pages) Less Than Nothing - I would love to see LTN in 10 minutes or the Sublime Object of Ideology in 10 mins, Absolute Recoil in 10 mins and so on. Out of all the suggestions I mentioned, I would wish you to do videos on Zizek as my prime emphasis (and Hegel if you can).
Bonus: Noam Chomsky. I liked how in the video you mention Ferdinand de Saussure's work and talk about the role of language in shaping how we see reality (or reality shaping language). Chomsky's work in linguistics has been very profound and de Saussure also is one of his prime influences. You talked in the video about structuralism briefly, how the laws, norms, institutions, traditions etc structure our socio-cultural environment and connected that to the Big Other. Lacan's idea of The Unconscious being structured like a language.
Sorry for the awfully long wtite up. Would like to thank you once again and my regards to you. Wish you all the success and happiness.
Hi, thank you for your kind words! Glad to hear you are studying philosophy and find the videos useful (thank you for sharing them as well).
If I recall correctly, the information I took was primarily from the Stanford Encyclopedia of Language on Lacan. He is hard to read and requires a lot of time which I lack since I need to publish weekly or so. I'm mostly making videos on the Existentialists since they are those which I've mostly familiarised myself with. I haven't studied Kant, Hegel, etc. I may do videos on them in the future. Also Zizek sounds like an interesting read, might do something on him as well. I'm studying some of Heidegger's Being and Time, which will take me a while to digest.
Good luck in your studies, and thanks for the comment!
@@Eternalised Yes, your videos are really helpful and helped me understand my love for philosophy and gave me the courage to switch fields. So I'll thank you again for that and thank you for your good wishes.
You did a fantastic job, it's probably even from Stanford Encyclopedia you understood what he was trying to do with his project. And, as you already pointed out he's extremely hard to read and also uses sort of mathematical diagrams and equations for the same.
I do love your content on the existentialists and continues to add value to my understanding. However, Hegel seems as or more difficult to read than even Lacan. And, I totally understand that getting involved with Hegel or Lacan requires great amount of time on your part. But I also like the way you understand things and explain them.
Zizek is an interesting read. And having read him, you indirectly read Hegel, Kant, Lacan as well. I think if you read his book Less Than Nothing, then you would've atleast been acquainted with half of his work.
Haha, yeah Heidegger's Being and atime is a very complex read, I've been trying to study it as well, but haven't succeeded yet.
Thank you for all you do! Best wishes to you as well and good luck, looking forward to your content.
09:00 like Amos Wilson on African identity @@NegationOfNegation
Incredibly insightful video! I don't have anything to add that hasn't already been said, but as a university student covering philosophy for the first time in my degree, this video was a truly a gift. Thank you for your hard work!
man I just discovered your channel, please keep it up, I really appreciate your effort in summarizing and explaining philosophies in an elegant way
Good thing Jungien psycho-analysis is most widly used.Youre explaination is really good, but god damn Lacan just tried to make a complex subject even more complicated!
These ideas are compatible with the Jungian ego-self axis
jungian psychoanalysis is most certainly Not most widely used. That being said neither is Lacanian psychoanalysis. The most widely used is object relations theory.
Constructive criticism from a linguist: you have an accent. Rather than trying to hide it, for a listener, it is much more comfortable to hear the accent (because we can them "expect" certain misprunciations). 🙏 I really love your series, thanks!
I agree accents are beautiful and should be embraced.Latvians have a beautiful accent (unrelated to Eternalised)
Maybe that’s his accent
I disagree, I like how what he’s doing and it makes his speech more understandable
As a linguist, you should know that every single person has an accent
Are you accusing him of faking his accent? I don't get it.
This channel deserves way more likes. Keep up the great videos.
This video is extremly well made. I am 4 minutes in and I can no longer watch the video. My mind is overwhelmed with. I will come back later and share my full thoughts. Wish me luck

Hello
I don't know much about Lacan so this was a great summary. Thanks bro!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
Great lecture buddy, I did enjoyed your analysis and summary on Lacan
criminally underrated introduction to lacanian thought
Thank you for a great analysis using this for an English lecture
Great lecture. Your way of speaking and explaining is so clear that it can be easily translated to other languages. Congrats
finally i found a simple wand well explained introduction to lacan
grat video
this channel deser ves more views honestly
Spectacular! Thank you so much
I love your channel. Its hypnotic in a good way. Thank you.
Great summary, very helpful.Can you please post the titles of the paintings on the video?Excellent choices.
Thanks! I may soon publish an art section on my website as various people have inquired about the same.
A really enlightened piece, you put together. Thaax!!
Great video in a nutshell of 10 minutes. Very good - thanks for doing this videos :)
Squid games brought me here. Very interesting.
sames watching it through slowly trying to figure out clues and avoid spoilers
Squid games brought you here?
@@PWizz91 there is a scene where it shows someone’s work desk (I have subtitles on the Dubbed version) and it points out this book on the table called “theory of desire - Jacques Lacan”
@@frankyb4440 It fits with the story themes. The one, who made the game wanted to feel like how they felt as child where they can get the satisfaction of back then, kinda like how babies are romantised as having the joy of protection and cafe, but as the video points out, it creates frustration of not being able to do things and this feeling of satisfaction is not possible to quench or fulfil, because it doesn't want fulfilment and wants to exist eternally. Desires cannot fulfil you, realising what you need instead can do it and that is the lesson the guy who made the games should have learned a long time ago.
Great work! this channel is going to blow up
Wow, Great and well researched video! Honestly I never heard of this guy but he and his ideas seem very interesting!
Gotta explore psychology now Lol!
Fantastic, Keep It Up Buddy! :)
Love myself some Post Structuralists.
Plus got to know some stuff that I didn’t know in the 10 min treat :)
Thanks! An interesting guy to say the least. Glad it helped.
i just came here to say that i love learning about philosophy/psychoanalysis with this mystical backround music lmao!
So what would happen if a baby has never seen a mirror in his life
the mirror is not relegated to sight, you can feel your own self with the other senses and especially language
very good, thank u!
Is Lacan saying the ego cannot exist without a mirror or reflection? Must "self as other" only develop where there is a visual representation in a reflection?
great vid, where do you find all of the beautiful art you put in the video?
I think that Lacan completely misunderstod the basic idea that underlies the so-called "Anglo-American Ego-psychology". Ego-psychology does not try to posit an ubiquitous ego that governs and controls completely and unilaterally the entire human psychic life. Ego-psychologists just tried to study the ego itelf as an psychic instance in its relation to the Id and Superego. They did not refute the fundamental Freudian premise that the ego derives from the Id. They were interested in ego development, how exactly it works, how it defends itself against the other two psychic structures defined by Freud. The problem with Lacan is that he actually did not produce anything that was trully and originally his own in a theoretical sense. He stole other thinkers' ideas, including those of Freud, very skillfully modified, combined and synthesized them (he was a great magician in that field) and presented them as something uniquely his.
I think there are authors which implicitly and explicitly give primacy to the ego over the id inside the theory and the analytical practice of therapy inside the anglo american ego psychology. Lacan was very precise when he formulated these critiques. He critiques these methods of therapy (normally nowadays called the CBT approach) as participating in a form of suggestion in which the ego of the subject is stroked and coddled but the underlying repression has not been worked through.
Great summary
Great video!
Great content but why oh why are there no pauses in the delivery in order to allow listeners to properly absorb the incremental information being imparted? It comes across as a seamless stream of words with no regard to how it is being consumed.
This is brilliant, thank you
thank you for this
Whats the painting you used at 1:14 ? Great video btw!
Je pense que tu peux comprendre la langue française
It’s very useful to learn more than 3 languages
Lacan and derrida in french were fun to read
So what about people before mirrors were invented?
What book can u recommend about the there ideas you present here.
You can check out Zizek's How To Read Lacan.
Pyrrhonian skepticism has some similar theories with the signifier and the signified. indicative signs and recollective signs are like deeply focused upon. being able to deduce things based on what has been learned and what has been experienced.. and how our perceptions influence what we think we know about reality. its interesting. that just reminded me of that little tidbit i read in one of my sextus empiricus readings last year
You are a great explainer of Lacan but dude, slow down a bit. No one can digest these types of profound ideas in warp speed.
Really helpful plz can you give explain butler subversive bodily acts before 15 December
A criticism regarding the unknowability of our inner worlds:
Yes this is objectively true, others' truths are unknowable to me and my truth is unknowable to others.
However I disagree on the futility of self expression, this seems to represent traumatic suppression on his part.
This wall of obfuscation is where the purpose of artistic expression begins. This is the reason we write memoirs, study philosophy, paint abstract energies and emotions, write prose and poetry...
There is a degree to which this acknowledgement of the solitary nature of subjectivity is beneficial to practicing serenity - however I will never accept that suppression of self and futility of expression is a healthy response to this truism.
That said, Im not very familiar with Lacan beyond this video and the occasional reference from Zizek lectures, so maybe Im just confused by Lacan as I ought to be.
You're right. Lacan was like Plato in that he told people about realities that can never be known. Ask yourself why they would do that?
I've never thought much of philosophy that refers to something unknowable as explaining why we do things or why things occur. Lacan's conception of the real that you explain sounds quite mystical in that way. Am I off base? Or is he advocating for a kind of mysticism qua mysticism?
It might sound mystical although that's not Lacan's view of it as we can experience it through trauma gaps in the symbolic order or "experiences of the sublime". He really emphasised it as the most vital part of the Borromean rings, with the sinthome gluing everything together.
It is hard to describe as, unlike the symbolic order where there is "presence" and "absence", there is no absence in the Real, it is a sort of "non-thing" or "non-reality". A primordial and external dimension of experience. The Real emerges as that which is outside language: "it is that which resists symbolisation absolutely." This resistance to symbolisation lends it its traumatic quality.
Slavoj Žižek expanded on Lacan's Real, introducing three of them:
1. The "real Real": a horrific thing, that which conveys the sense of horror in horror films.
2. The "symbolic Real": the signifier reduced to a meaningless formula like quantum physics, which cannot be understood in any meaningful way, only grasped through abstract mathematics.
3. The "imaginary Real": an unfathomable something that permeates things as a trace of the sublime.
@@Eternalised Gotcha. It appears to me that the "hard to describe" is the very point of this concept. Would Lacan/Zizek say that our very attempt to describe the Real is futile?
@@DEBUNKALLDAY Yeah i think they'd describe it as a "non reality" basically and use it from that standpoint, but I really need to read more about them to know for sure!
The status of the real is not of a mystical position, for unlike mysticism, the experience of the real can be transmitted by the means of formalisation (into mathemes).
As Lacan puts it, the real is ‘that which resists symbolisation absolutely.’ That, the real is only accessible through the deadlock of symbolisation. The real is not any Kantian thing-in-itself, which can not be known: an unknowable 𝑥. No, the real-literally-is nothing but the deadlock of symbolisation.
I say: only insofar as the real is this deadlock can it become the proposed ‘impossible’ (S11, 167).
That is to say, @@Eternalised, the real is not something that assumes its ‘traumatic quality’ by virtue of ‘the resistance to symbolisation’, rather the real is the resistance to symbolisation itself.
And also, it would be very kind of you to provide me with the reference to Žižek's elaboration on the three reals you mentioned.
Thank you for a superbly cogent summary.
I came here for the explanation, but damn, I just want to know all the artists' and paintings' names.
too vague, too many ideas presented (sometimes in the same sentence), with just a handful being explored or expanded. The whole general thought direction or orientation keeps meandering from beginning to end, making this potpourri more like bullet points list a psych student is studying the night before finals, thrashing through entire sectors and chapters in one liners to feedback memory and remembering. All this making no sense practically for clinicians or researchers of the psychoanalysis by Lacan, even with the content fleshed out, making it both wrong and misleading
Very nice! But no reference to the Name of the Father...?
Lacan in 10 min😂😂😂😂, I don’t think you can understand him in the lifetime
so what your saying is: The west insists upon the abstract concept of self. & Lacan represses that concept, as evidenced by his idea of No-Self; and he instead insists upon Poetry/Poetic expression. As evidenced by his insistence that certain terms not be translated into English, and the shared belief with freud that the unconscious houses the true self, which is non-existence AND the true self can only be expressed through poetic(chaotic) means. but we're all still insisting.
The problem is, that you need to understand 10 years and more, not 10 minutes...
Slavoj zizek brought me here
Ok, perhaps a half-cooked question, by a non-professional: How comes that the real can be experienced when meaning is torn apart, wouldn't for example loosing of ones family in a tragic accident, and subsequent break down in despair be an ultimate recognition of the imaginary and symbolic? IF anyone feels compelled to elucidate me, feel free, otherwise, have a good day friends :)
Also GREAT video!
From what I understand tragedy forced you to confront the real because in between when you lose the life narrative of “I have a family, I am a family man, I am working for my family” and when you get a new narrative “I need to move on, I am an individual, I need to rebuild” you have no narrative. And so all you can do is stare into the sheer emptiness of existence. At least that’s how I understand it, I hope this helps
@@JDG-hq8gy Thank you friend, much appreciate and helpful explanation. Thank you trooper!
@@thunbergmartin No problem :). Do u have any more questions?
@@JDG-hq8gy I'm good, maybe in the future!
Whole lot o wrapping, big box, quite a performance, like Zizeck ---nothing inside.
It's literary theory, applicable to nothing else.
yes, from what I can see, Lacan is a huge troll, knowing that many people will assume there's something there, and dig through the layers of obscurity, while he chuckles knowing there is nothing there....and then, THAT'S supposed to be the point, some kind of nihilism or absurdism (or in Derrida's terms, endlessly deferred meaning) which, if only one can see it, characterizes ALL human knowledge. But I'm open to being shown otherwise, if someone can do it in a reasonably concise and clear way...but Lacan apparently did not value either concision or clarity...and that non-valuing of clarity is considered a very cool thing among poststructuralist types. To my mind, it's a philosophy of unredeemed and absolute despair, especially despair about the possibility of the human mind's capacity to know reality. It's a kind of deification of non-intelligibility. Very dark IMHO.
Considered a bigot and a fraud by major intellectuals since the 80’s was confronted live in an audience with hard facts, he tried to impose his views in freudian psychoanalysis and dismiss without evidence, i see this man as a catalyst to rethink and shake the foundations for mayor changes to come, he just challenged this till the end,he was influential on zizek and other mayor french philosophers
Lacoown
😳🤓
Good try but you can’t squish Lacan into two minutes.
What a bunch of crap🤣
