Abstract:
Clinical impact of the Borromean topology on Lacanian structuralism. After discussing three modalizations of the relationship between the real and language throughout the work of Jacques Lacan, we extract its consequences for clinical psychoanalysis. Then we highlight the incidence of knot theory at the end of the Lacanian transmission. We consider the case of Joyce as a paradigm of this reading. And finally, we look at the point at which the knot theory intersects the structuralist doctrine and also discuss its consequences for practicing psychoanalysis.
