− | Although [[Lacan]] sometimes refers to the private lectures of 1951-2 and 1952-3 as the first two years of his '[[seminar]]', the term is now usually reserved for the public lectures which began in 1953.
| + | ! VI |
− | | + | | 1958-9 || [[Desire and its interpretation| Desire and its Interpretation]]. <BR> ''[[Le désir et son interprétation]]''. || |
− | From that point on until his [[death]] in 1981, [[Lacan]] took a different theme each academic year and delivered a series of lectures on it.
| + | |- |
− | | + | ! VII |
− | These twenty-seven annual series of lectures are usually referred to collectively as 'the [[seminar]]', in the singular.

− | After ten years at the [[Hôpital Sainte-Anne]], the [[seminar]] moved to the [[École Normale Supérieure]] in 1964, and to the Faculté de Droit in 1973.
| + | |- |
− | | + | ! IX |
− | These changes of venue were due to various reasons, not least of which was the need to accommodate the constantly growing audience as the [[seminar]] gradually became a focal point in the Parisian intellectual resurgence of the 1950s and 1960s.

− | == Speech ==
| + | ! |
− | | + | | 1963 || [[Les Noms du père|The Names of the Father]].<BR> ''[[Les Noms du père]]''. || |
− | Given [[Lacan]]'s insistence that [[speech]] is the only medium of [[psychoanalysis]],<ref>{{E}} p.40</ref> it is perhaps appropriate that the original means by which [[Lacan]] developed and expounded his ideas should have been the spoken [[word]].
| + | |- |
− | | + | ! X |
− | As [[Lacan]]'s [[[[seminar]]]]s became increasingly popular, demand grew for written transcripts of the [[seminar]].
| + | | 1962-3 || [[L'angoisse|Anxiety]].<BR> ''[[L'angoisse]]''. || [[image:Sem10.jpg|thumb|50px|right]] |
− | | + | |- |
− | However, apart from a few small articles that he wrote on the basis of some lectures delivered in the course of the [[seminar]], [[Lacan]] never published any account of his own [[[[seminar]]]]s.
| + | ! XI |
− | | + | | 1964 || [[Seminar XI|The Four Fundamental Concepts of Psychoanalysis]]. <BR> ''[[Les quatre concepts fondamentaux de la psychanalyse]]''. || [[image:Sem11.jpg|thumb|50px|right]] |
− | In 1956-9 [[Lacan]] authorised Jean-Bertrand Pontalis to publish a few summaries of sections of the [[seminar]] during those years, but this as not enough to satisfy the growing demand for written accounts of [[Lacan]]'s teaching.
| + | |- |
− | | + | ! XII |
− | Hence unauthorised transcripts of [[Lacan]]'s [[seminar]] began increasingly to be circulated among his followers in an almost clandestine way.
| + | | 1964-5 || [[Crucial problems for psychoanalysis | Crucial Problems for Psychoanalysis]]. <BR> ''[[Problèmes cruciaux pour la psychanalyse]]''. || |
− | | + | |- |
− | Even during Lacan's lifetime, the seminar circulated in the form of photocopies of diverse and unreliable written versions of the spoken text.
| + | ! XIII |
− | | + | | 1965-6 || [[The object of psychoanalysis | The Object of Psychoanalysis]]. <BR>''[[L'objet de la psychanalyse]]''. || |
− | Beginning in 1973, Lacan entrusted the transcription of the seminar to [[Jacques-Alain Miller]].
| + | |- |
− | | + | ! XIV |
− | In 1973, [[Lacan]] allowed his son-in-law, [[Jacques-Alain Miller]], to publish an edited transcript of the lectures given in 1964, the eleventh year of the [[seminar]].
| + | | 1966-7 || [[The logic of fantasy | The Logic of Fantasy]]. <BR>''[[La logique du fantasme]]''. |
− | | + | |- |
− | In an editor's note to ''[[The Four Fundamental Concepts of Psychoanalysis]]'', the first of his publications of [[Lacan]]'s [[seminars]], [[Miller]] writes:
| + | ! XV |
− | | + | | 1967-8 || [[The Psychoanalytic Act]].<BR>''[[L'acte psychanalytique]]''. |
− | <blockquote>"My intention here was to be as unobtrusive as possible and to obtain from Jacques Lacan's spoken work an authentic version that would stand, in the future, for the original, which does not exist."<ref>{{S11}} p. xi</ref></blockquote> | + | |- |
− | | + | ! XVI |
− | Since then, [[Miller]] has continued to bring out edited versions of other years of the [[seminar]], although the number published is still fewer than half.

− | | + | |- |
− | [[Miller]]'s role in editing and publishing the [[seminar]] has led to some very heated arguments, with opponents claiming he has distorted [[Lacan]]'s original. | + | ! XVII |
− | | + | | 1969-70 || [[The reverse of psychoanalysis | The Reverse of Psychoanalysis]].<BR> ''[[L'envers de la psychanalyse]]''. || [[image:Sem17.jpg|thumb|50px|right]] |
− | However, as [[Miller]] himself has pointed out, the transition from an oral to a written medium, and the editing required by this, means that these published versions of the [[seminar]] could never be simple transcripts of the lectures given by [[Lacan]].<ref>Miller, 1985</ref>
| + | |- |
− | | + | ! XVIII |
− | So far only nine of the yearly [[[[seminar]]]]s have been published in book form, while authorised extracts from others have appeared in the journal [[Ornicar?]].

− | Unauthorised transcripts of the unpublished years of the [[seminar]] continue to circulate today, both in [[France]] and abroad.
| + | ! XIX |
− | | + | | 1971-2 || [[. . . Or Worse]].<BR>''[[...ou pire]]''. |
− | Name-of-the-Father was to be the next seminar, but only a single session was given, on November 25, 1963, at Sainte-Anne Hospital. Lacan stopped giving this seminar when he learned that the International Psychoanalytical Association had refused to reinstate him as a training analyst.
| + | |- |
− | | + | ! XX |
− | Each seminar contains approximately 25 presentations from the weekly seminar. While each presentation is supposed to pick up and follow on from the week before, the connections can often be tenuous. Unlike the ''Écrits'', the seminars are not difficult to read, but it can still be hard to follow the train of associations and links that Lacan makes. Usually, though, in a performative flourish Lacan will pull the whole presentation together in the final moments and provide a startlingly clear and understandable formulation of what he has been talking about.

− | | + | | 1973-4 || [[The Non-Duped Err/The Names of the Father]].<BR>''[[Les non-dupes errent]]''. |
− | Because Lacan was old and ill, seminar 27 was not delivered publicly but only published. It dealt with the dissolution of his school,École freudienne de Paris (Freudian School of Paris).

| + | |- |
− | A [[seminar]] is a form of academic teaching, at a university or offered by a commercial or professional organization, in small groups where students are requested to actively participate during meetings.
| + | !XXIII |
− | | + | | 1975-6 || [[The Sinthome]].<BR>''[[Le sinthom]]''. |
− | This often has to be done by presenting a paper in class and also in written form. Normally, participants must not be beginners.
| + | |- |
− | | + | !XXIV |
− | The idea behind [[[[seminar]]]]s is to confront students with the methodology of their chosen subject and also to familiarise them with practical problems that might crop up during their research work. Often a [[seminar]] will be open to discussion, where questions can be raised and debates conducted.

− | Another form of academic teaching is lecturing, a form which involves larger student groups with less active participation.
| + | !XXV |
− | | + | | 1977-8 || [[The Moment of Concluding]].<BR>''[[Le moment de conclure]]''. |
− | In some European universities a [[seminar]] can be a large lecture course, especially when conducted by a renowned thinker, regardless of the size of the audience or its participation in discussion.
