==Affirmation==In his "[[Reply to Jean Hyppolite's commentary on Freud's "Negation"]]" ([[{{Y}}|1954]]), [[Lacan]] describes a primordial [[act]] of [[Bejahung|affirmation]] which is logically prior to any [[act]] of [[negation]].<ref>{{L}} "[[Works of Jacques Lacan|Introduction aux commentaire de Jean Hyppolite sur la 'Verneinung' de Freud]]", in {{E}} [1954b] pp. 381-99.</ref> [[Lacan]] uses [[Freud]]'s [[German]] term, ''[[Bejahung]]'' ('to denote this primordial [[affirmation]]') to denote this primordial affirmation.<ref>{{Ec}} p.387</ref>
==Existence==Whereas [[negation]] concerns what [[Freud]] called the "judgement of [[existence]]," ''[[Bejahung]]'' denotes something more fundamental, namely the primordial [[act ]] of [[symbolization]] itself, the inclusion of something in the [[symbolic|symbolic universe]]. Only after a [[thing]] has been [[symbolize]]d (at the level of ''[[Bejahung]]'') can the [[value]] universeof [[existence]] be attributed to it or not (''[[negation]]'').
