Lacan and Deleuze: towards the real unconscious—its theoretical and political implications
摘要
This article examines the seemingly improbable dialogue between Jacques Lacan’s psychoanalytical theory and Anti-Oedipus, authored by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari. Initially considered irreconcilable due to Lacan’s emphasis on lack and Deleuze’s celebration of positivity, their potential convergence is explored. The main hypothesis is that despite conceptual disparities, Lacan’s later work, particularly his notion of the real unconscious, as well as concepts of lalangue and sinthome, represent a kind of response to the critics exposed in Anti-Oedipus.
