Jacques Lacan, Panorama, 1974
Andrew Wyeth, Christina's World, 1948
The battle of Camperdown (Zeeslag bij Kamperduin) was fought #onthisday 1797. The British fleet defeated the Batavian Navy (the Dutch were allied of Revolutionary France).
In 1801 Philippe-Jacques de Loutherbourg RA painted the flagship ‘Vryheid’ at the moment of her surrender.
Tomorrow at the Lacan Circle Reading Group:
“Whenever we are dealing with a formation of the unconscious, we have to systematically search for what I call the debris of the metonymic object.”

Tutti, schiavi e vittime dell’amor proprio, non vivono per vivere, ma per far credere di aver vissuto.

“Freud brings us the notion of a subject that operates beyond this ineffective ego. He shows us the mainsprings and the action of this subject within us that is so difficult to grasp.”
Jacques Lacan, Seminar V, Formations of the Unconscious, this week at https://t.co/sjeC7Osdot
“I have already said enough to you for you to know that jouissance is the jar of the Danaides, and that once you have started, you never know where it will end. It begins with a tickle and ends with a blaze of petrol. That’s always what jouissance is.”
Jacques Lacan
Man believes he creates
He believes believes believes
He creates creates creates
He creates creates creates woman
In reality, he puts her to work
To the work of the One
Jacques Lacan, On Feminine Sexuality, The Limits of Love and Knowledge
Gustav Klimt, Danaides, 1907
“Here, as always, language betrays the truth. In the formula, 'I want your heart', as in any metaphor of an organ, the heart is to be taken to the letter. It functions as a part of the body, as, if I may say, part of the innards.”
Jacques Lacan, Seminar X, Anxiety
“What characterises the hysterical position is a question which he addresses with all his being – how can one be either male or female? The hysteric’s 'either/or' contrasts with the obsessional’s response 'neither/nor'; neither male nor female."
