As If

Agamben only sporadically alludes to psychoanalysis and invokes psychoanalytic concepts. He does so most prominently in Stanzas, where he dedicates Part III to ‘geniisque Henry Corbin et Jacques Lacan‘ (S 61); refers to ‘the Lacanian thesis according to which […] the phantasm makes the pleasure suited to the desire’, in order to elaborate a point in Plato about desire and pleasure relying on images in the soul (S 74); and takes up melancholia and fetishism – both of which, it is important to note, circumvent lack. But Agamben is by no means ‘psychoanalytic’. He presents and employs melancholia and fetishism as paradigms for accessing the inaccessible (perhaps we can say that he plays with them). Melancholia, in Agamben, becomes an ‘imaginative capacity to make an unobtainable object appear as if lost’ so that it ‘may be appropriated insofar as it is lost’ (S 20), a strategy for saving the unsavable that evolves into his conception of the messianic. And, although Agamben is preoccupied with ‘a zone of non-consciousness’, he underscores that it is ‘not the fruit of a removal, like the unconscious of psychoanalysis’ (UB 64)

Theoretical Perspectives

Is it possible to speak of conceptual conjunctions between Fritz Morgenthaler and Jacques Lacan? This question is explored in relation to the practical work of an analyst as she engages with their – at once completely different and yet complementary – theoretical perspectives. Both emphasize the active, demanding-desiring position of the analyst while simultaneously refusing any metapsychologically oriented interpretive technique. Both criticize the normative, denigrating impetus of too much psychoanalytic thinking, especially in the context of developmental psychology and pathologizing doctrine. They warn against too-certain knowledge on the analyst's part. Both emphasize primary-process drive-strivings and the emancipatory possibilities of psychoanalysis – as they both also attend particularly to the formal aspects of the analysand's speech.

The Phallus Unveiled: Lacan, Badiou and the Comedic Moment in Genet's The Balcony

Conservative Restoration

This essay explores how the image of the Chief of Police dressed as a giant phallus is the often overlooked and misconstrued key to the interpretation of Jean Genet's canonical play The Balcony (1956). Drawing on, but also moving beyond, the invaluable readings of Alain Badiou and Jacques Lacan in their respective seminars, it argues that the motif of the Chief's costume condenses the play's insightful, and more relevant than ever, examination of the functioning of ideology in the visible world. Genet's play is a theatrical allegory for ideology's workings at a historical juncture when spontaneous identification with, and therefore allegiance to, traditional authority figures is no longer possible as it presumably once was. A proper appreciation of the comedic moment of the play sheds ironic light on its final vision of conservative restoration, generating precious insights about the workings of contemporary power and the renaissance of authoritarianism at the twilight of the liberal era.

Depressive Position

In fiktionaler, zuweilen humorvoller und kritischer Weise bringt Robert Heim drei ikonische Gestalten der Psychoanalyse nach Freud miteinander ins Gespräch: Melanie Klein, Wilfred R. Bion und Jacques Lacan. Ob Kleins paranoid-schizoide und depressive Position, Bions Container oder Lacans Begehren und Genießen – mittels einer komparatistischen Methode eröffnet der Autor neue Perspektiven auf grundlegende Begriffe und zentrale Bereiche der Psychoanalyse. Neben theoretischen und behandlungstechnischen Fragen widmet er sich auch aktuellen gesellschaftlichen Themen wie der Klimakrise.

Ao abordar a arte, especifcamente a poesia, como meio (espaço e ato) de resistência, este ensaioparte de duas constatações e de uma confssão. As constatações: (1) para além de todo poder deordem histórica, de todo instrumento de coerção, seja político, econômico, ideológico, moralou cultural a que o homem esteja submetido e deva resistir, está a certeza da fnitude -- a sua ea daqueles que ama. Também (sobretudo, talvez) diante da consciência dessa condição mortalque limita, oprime e fere o humano, cabe resistir. O luto, como modo de lidar com a morte, é,portanto, ato de resistência; (2) Se a resistência se organiza no campo da arte, ela deve se valerdas armas próprias dessa linguagem, pelo que aqui importa, tanto quanto a temática abordadana poesia elegíaca de Camões, a forma poética como elaboração de um trabalho de luto. A confssão: este texto é em si mesmo um trabalho de luto, que se vale do exercício de pensamentopróprio do ensaio como forma para elaborar a perda que motiva sua escritura. A partir dessespressupostos e desse lugar de fala, realiza-se nas páginas que seguem uma leitura atenta de trêssonetos camonianos que compõem o assim chamado ciclo a Dinamene, pondo-os em diálogocom as reflexões de Sigmund Freud, Jacques Lacan e Jean Allouch sobre o luto, bem como coma teoria de Maurice Blanchot sobre a linguagem, que a concebe como trabalho de luto.
