LACAN’S FOUR FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS

 

Lacan’s ‘Four Fundamental Concepts of Psychoanalysis’ (1963 – 64) is a landmark seminar not only in terms of the development of Lacan’s work but also in relation to contemporary developments in psychoanalysis. Rather than following the fashionable elaboration of new categories of ego defence, Lacan returned to reinvigorate four basic Freudian concepts that had been progressively taken for granted. He elaborated the four concepts of the Unconscious, the Drive, Repetition and the Transference in a way which remained very close to the Freudian texts he used as his sources while at the same time giving them a new life through the introduction of a theory of language and the forms of subjectivity that are a consequence of language. This short course will present Lacan’s four concepts and give clinical examples which show the relevance of Lacan’s thought to the clinician today.
