The Each [[discoursematheme|algorithmsalgorithm]] of the [[discourse|four discourses]] contain has ''four'' different [[algebraicdiscourse|positions]] [[symbol]]s in with which the ''four'' different [[discourse|positionssymbol]]s correspond.

The '''[[discourseImage:Discourse-Structure.jpg|thumb|250px|positions]]''' right|The structure of the ''four'' '''[[symbol]]s''' in each [[discourse|algorithm]] is what distinguishes the [[discourse|four discourses]] from one another.

What distinguishes the The [[discourse|four discoursesposition]] from one another is of the '''[[discourse|positions]]''' of the four '''[[symbol]]s''' in each [[matheme|algorithm]] is what distinguishes the [[discourse|algorithmfour discourses]] from one another.

The [[discourse|four discourses]] are distinguished from one another by the '''[[discourse|positions]]of these ''' of these four '''[[symbol]]s''' in each [[discoursematheme|algorithm]] .

=====Four Positions=====Each of the [[discourse|four discourses]] is defined by the [[discourse|position]] has of the ''four'' [[discoursesymbol]]s in its [[matheme|positionsalgorithm]], which stand in a fixed relationship to one another.

There are The names of the ''four '' [[discourse|positions]] in each [[discourse]], which stand in a fixed relationship are shown to one anotherthe right.<ref>{{S20}} p.21</ref>

There are ''four '' =====Discourse of the Master=====[[discourseImage:Madis.jpg|thumb|right|positions[[Discourse]] in of the [[matheme|algorithmsMaster]]]]The [[discourse]] of the [[master]] is the basic [[discourse|four discourses]], each of from which is designated by a different namethe other three [[discourse]]s are derived.

=====Four Names=====The '''dominant position''' is occupied by the [[master signifier]] ([[Image:SS1.gif]]), which represents the [[subject]] ('''S''') for another [[signifier]] or, more precisely, for all other [[signifiers]] ([[Image:Lacan-structurefourdiscoursesSS2.jpggif]]); however, in this [[signification|thumb|250px|right|The structure of the four discoursessignifying operation]] there is always a [[surplus]], namely, ''[[objet petit a]]''.

The first position (with which each [[discourse]] starts) point is called the [[discourse|agent]]that all attempts at totalization are doomed to failure.

The second position is called [[discourse]] of the [[discourse|othermaster]] "masks the [[division]] of the [[subject]]."<ref>{{S17}} p. 118</ref>

The third position is called [[discourse]] also illustrates clearly the [[discoursestructure]] of the [[dialectic]] of the [[master]] and the [[master|productslave]].

The four position [[master]] ([[Image:SS1.gif]]) is called the [[discourse|truthagent]] who puts the [[slave]] ([[Image:SS2.gif]]) to work; the result of this work is a [[surplus]] (''[[objet (petit) a|a]]'') that the [[master]]attempts to appropriate.
