==Jacques LacanThe Concept of the Sign=====Signification===[[Image:SAUSSUREANALGORITHM.gif|thumb|150px|right|[[Saussurean algorithm|The Saussurean algorithm]]]]The term "[[bar]]" first appears in [[Lacan]]'s [[work ]] in 1957, where it is introduced in the context of a [[discussion ]] of [[Ferdinand de Saussure]]'s [[concept ]] of the [[sign]].<ref>{{E}} p.149</ref>In this context, the [[bar]] is the line that separates the [[signifier]] from the [[signified]] (in the [[Saussurean algorithm]]), and stands for the [[resistance]] inherent in [[signification]] which is only crossed in [[metaphor]].
==The Barred Other==
The [[bar]] is also used to strike through the '''A''' (the [[big Other]]) to produce the [[algebra]]ic notation for the "[[bar|barred Other]]," <strike>'''A'''</strike>. However, [[Lacan]] continues to use both [[sign]]s in his [[algebra]] (e.g. in the [[graph of desire]]). The [[bar]]red [[Other]] is the [[Other]] insofar as it is [[castration|castrated]], [[lack|incomplete]], marked by a [[lack]], as opposed to the [[lack|complete]], [[fragmented body|consistent]], [[castration|uncastrated]] [[Other]], an [[un-barred]] '''A''', which does not [[existence|exist]].
=="Woman Does Not long after the 1957 paper in which the term first appears, in Exist"==In 1973 the [[seminarbar]] of 1957-8, [[Lacan]] goes on is used to use strike through the definite article ''la'' whenever it precedes the noun ''[[barwoman|femme]] to strike through his '' ("[[algebraicwoman]] "), as in [[symbolLacan]]'s famous phrase ''[[woman|la femme n'S''' and '''A'existe pas]]'' ("[[woman|woman does not exist]]"). The definite article in a manner reminiscent of [[HeideggerFrench]] indicates [[universality]]'s practice of , and by crossing it out the word "[[beingLacan]] illustrates his [[thesis]] that [[femininity]]is resistant to all forms of generalisation."<ref>Heidegger, 1956{{S20}} p.68</ref>
