1964 (4 pp.)-DU "TRIES" DE [[Freud|FREUD ]] ET DU DESIR DU [[Psychanalyste|PSYCHANALYSTE ]] (ON [[Freud|FREUD]]'S "TRIES" AND ON THE DESIRE OF THE [[Psychoanalyst|PSYCHOANALYST]])�ITALY 1964-[[France|FRANCE ]] 1966 How should [[Trieb ]] be translated? One [[knows ]] the controversy: "[[instinct]]" or "[[drive]]"? In 1938, [[Lacan ]] had already rejected the term "instinct" in favor of "[[complex]]" (10), and he also [[thought ]] at the [[time ]] that he could isolate "a pure [[primitive ]] drive" (11). Later, in his [[graphs ]] of [[desire ]] (36) he linked the drive to the [[formula]]: a 0 D (the drive is related to the [[demand ]] and not to the [[need]]). However, it was not until the [[seminar ]] on L'[[Angoisse ]] (52) that he began to address this [[concept ]] more closely. The problem of [[translation ]] is above all a problem of definition. This sum�mary of his talk and of his comments in Rome at the Colloquium organized by Professor Castelli on "[[Technique ]] and Casuistry" foreshadows [[The Seminar|the seminar ]] to come on Les Quatre [[Concepts ]] fondamentaux (55), one of these four con�cepts [[being ]] the drive. Lacan even says in a note in [[Ecrits ]] that he "avoided giving too quickly [his own theorizations] to a wide and uncontrollable audience. " He reaffirms the [[difference ]] between [[libido ]] and [[sexual ]] instinct: "its reduc�tion, up to a point, to [[male ]] desire warns us of the difference," he says. Except for this [[statement]], the [[text ]] is a confirmation of his convictions (some would say of his [[ideology]]): the [[Name]]-of-the-[[Father ]] allows man to escape the sexual service of the [[mother]]; Venus is proscribed from our [[world]]; [[theology ]] has de�cayed before a prevailing [[monotheism]]; [[castration ]] protects one from [[incest ]] with the mother as well as from [[homosexuality]], as the law protects one from [[jouissance]], which is on the side of the [[Thing]]; desire institutes i.tself in the assumption of castration and [[lack]]; as for the [[woman]], "she must lose what she does not have," etc. Such themes are familar. What [[about ]] the [[analyst]]'s de�sire? This desire is the one that ultimately, for [[good ]] or for bad, operates in [[psychoanalysis]].

"[[maternal ]] instinct" in Les Propos directifs (45) and, in an obsessive way. about a "[[death ]] instinct" above all?
