In the so-called "'''[[topographical model]]'''", [[Freud]] isolates [[consciousness]] as one of the parts of the [[psyche]], along with the '''[[unconscious]]''' and the '''[[preconscious]]'''.
==Jacques Lacan====Lacan on =Consciousness and Freud===
[[Lacan]] finds [[Freud]]'s remarks on [[consciousness]] far weaker than his formulations on the [[unconscious]].
<blockquote>"The difficulties which this system of [[consciousness]] raises reappear at each level of [[Freud]]'s theorising."<ref>{{S2}} p.117</ref></blockquote>
==Consciousness and the Ego==In particular, [[Lacan]] rejects the apparent attempts in [[Freud]]'s work to link the [[consciousness]]|consciousness-perception system ]] to the [[ego]], unless this link is carefully theorisedtheorized. If there is a link between the [[ego]] and [[consciousness]], it is in terms of a '''[[lure]]'''.
The [[illusion]] of a fully [[mirror|self-transparent]] [[consciousness]] is subverted by the whole [[psychoanalytic]] experience (see ''[[cogito]]'').
