==Jacques Lacan=====Sigmund Freud===In the so-called "[[topographical model]]"," [[Freud]] isolates [[consciousness]] as one of the parts of the [[psyche]], along with the [[unconscious]] and the [[preconscious]]. [[Lacan]] finds [[Freud]]'s remarks on [[consciousness]] far weaker than his formulations on the [[unconscious]].

<blockquote>"While he [Freud] can give a coherent, balanced account of the majority of [[other]] parts of the [[psychic]] [[apparatus]], when it's a question of consciousness, he always encounters mutually contradictory [[conditions]]."<ref>{{S2}} p.117</ref></blockquote> According to [[Lacan]] finds , [[Freud]]'s remarks on problems with discussing [[consciousness]] far weaker than [[return]] again and again to haunt his formulations on the [[unconscioustheory]].:

<blockquote>"While he The difficulties which this [Freud[system]] can give a coherent, balanced account of the majority [[consciousness]] raises reappear at each level of other parts of the psychic apparatus, when it[[Freud]]'s a question of consciousness, he always encounters mutually contradictory conditionstheorising."<ref>{{S2}} p.117</ref></blockquote>

According to ===Consciousness and the Ego===In [[particular]], [[Lacan]], rejects the [[apparent]] attempts in [[Freud]]'s problems with discussing [[work]] to link the [[consciousness|consciousness-perception system]] to the [[ego]], unless this link is carefully theorized. If there is a link between the [[ego]] return again and again to haunt his [[theoryconsciousness]], it is in [[terms]] of a '''[[lure]]'''. The [[illusion]] of a fully [[mirror|self-transparent]] [[consciousness]] is subverted by the [[whole]] [[psychoanalytic]] [[treatment|experience]] (see ''[[cogito]]: '').

<blockquote>"The difficulties which this system of [[consciousnessConsciousness]] in [[man]] is by [[essence]] a polar tension between an [[ego]] [[alienated]] from the [[subject]] raises reappear at each level of and a [[Freudperception]]which fundamentally escapes it, a pure ''percipi''s theorising."<ref>{{S2}} p.117177</ref></blockquote>

===Consciousness and Materialism===In particular, 1954 [[Lacan]] rejects the apparent attempts in gives "a [[Freudmaterialist]]'s work to link definition of the phenomenon of [[consciousness]]."<ref>{{S2}} p.40-perception system 52</ref> However, [[materialism|matter]] is not to be confused with [[nature]]. [[Lacan]] argues that [[consciousness]] does not evolve from the [[egonatural]][[order]]. It is radically discontinuous, unless this link and its origin is carefully theorisedmore akin to [[development|creation]] than to [[development|evolution]]. <ref>{{S7}} p. 213-14; 223</ref>

If there is a link between the [[ego]] and [[consciousness]], it is in terms of a [[lure]]. The [[illusion]] of a fully self-transparent [[consciousness]] is subverted by the whole [[psychoanalytic]] experience (see ''[[cogito]]'').  <blockquote>"[[Consciousness]] in [[man]] is by essence a polar tension between an [[ego]] alienated from the [[subject]] and a perception which fundamentally escapes it, a pure ''percipi''."<ref>{{S2}} p.177</ref></blockquote> -- In 1954 [[Lacan]] gives "a [[materialist]] definition of the phenomenon of [[consciousness]]."<ref>{{S2}} p.40-52</ref>  However, matter is not ===Subject Supposed to be confused with [[nature]]. [[Lacan]] argues that [[consciousness]] does not evolve from the [[natural]] [[order]]. It is radically discontinuous, and its origin is more akin to creation than to evolution.<ref>{{S7}} 213-14; 223</ref> --Know===In the 1960s [[Lacan]] rethinks the [[illusion]] of a [[consciousness|self-consciousness]] (''[[consciousness|Selbstbe-wufltsein]]'') fully [[time|present ]] to itself in terms of his [[concept ]] of the [[subject supposed to know]].
