 The Logic of the Unconscious and the Drive: Remarks on the Foundation of Psychoanalysis with André Michels online with André Michels

Henri Matisse, Sorrow of the King, 1952
FOUNDATIONS OF PSYCHOANALYSIS  The Logic of the Unconscious and the Drive: Remarks on the Foundation of Psychoanalysis  André Michels  Saturday, February 6, 202110:00 AM – 12:30 PM (EST)

Lacan’s logical investigations of the unconscious is already at work in Freud’s elaboration of The Interpretation of Dreams. The radical newness of psychoanalysis is to situate the unconscious in relation to the drive, as its ethical kernel; yet the amazing proximity, if not identity, in psychoanalysis of logic, ethics, and aesthetics is one anticipated by Wittgenstein.
Suggested readings: Freud: The Interpretation of Dreams (1900). Lacan: Seminar XIV, La logique du fantasme, 1966-67. Wittgenstein, Ludwig: Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (1922).
André Michels is a psychoanalyst practicing in Luxembourg and Paris, and a member of the Après-Coup faculty. He is the co-editor of the Jahrbuch für klinische Psychoanalyse, editor of Actualité de l’hystérie, and author of numerous articles on psychoanalysis.

Advanced Lacanians are supposedly those who have a ‘clinic of the real’ or of ‘jouissance,’ but beyond the sophisticated terms we often find feeble and unhelpful conceptualizations. The label ‘jouissance’ is now used almost entirely descriptively, thus blocking further exploration of a variety of clinical issues and shutting down rather than opening up clinical and conceptual questions about the symptom, the body, repetition, and sexuality.
