| − | [[No Subject]] is a free online encyclopedia and resource for information related to [[psychoanalysis]], [[politics]], and [[philosophy]]. This information is presented here in a manner that permits what [[French]] [[psychoanalysis|psychoanalyst]] [[Jacques Lacan]] called a "kind of tightening up" that "leave[s] the reader no other way out than the way in."<ref>Lacan, Jacques. [[The Agency of the Letter in the Unconscious or Reason Since Freud]]. 1977, p. 146/.493</ref> Whereas Lacan preferred his writings "to be difficult," this website is intended to provide such a "way in," that is, by serving as an authoritative and intelligible guide to the original texts of key thinkers in the fields of [[psychoanalysis]], [[politics]], and [[philosophy]], enabling visitors to follow their own interests and develop their own projets. The articles on No Subject are cross-referenced, with links to relevant articles with further in-depth information, if you need it, relevant external web sites and pages, reference material, and organized categories of knowledge which you can search and traverse in a loose hierarchy for more information. | + | [[Image:Borromean.Knot.jpg|thumb|250px|right|[[Borromean knot|The Borromean knot]]]] |
