Lacan coins the term 'extimacy' (''extimitÈ'') by applying the prefix ex (from exterieur, 'exterior') to the French word intimitÈ ('intimacy'). {{Top}}extimité{{Bottom}}
The resulting neologism, which may be rendered ==Jacques Lacan=====Translation===[[Lacan]] coins the term ''[[extimité]]'' by applying the prefix ''ex'' -- from ''exterieur'extimacy' in English, neatly expresses "exterior" -- to the way in which psychoanalysis problematises the opposition between inside and outside, between container and contained[[Freud]] [[word]] ''intimité'' -- "intimacy".<ref>see S7, 139</ref>
For example==="Inside" and "Outside"===The resulting neologism, the which may be rendered "[[extimacy]] in [[realEnglish]] is just as much inside as outside, and neatly expresses the way in which [[unconsciouspsychoanalysis]] is not a purely interior psychic system but an problematizes the opposition between "[[intersubjectivity|intersubjectiveinside]] " and "[[structureoutside]] ('the unconscious is outside')"<ref>{{S7}} p. 139</ref>
Again===Examples===[[Image:Lacan-mobeiusstrip.jpg|thumb|right|[[Moebius Strip]]]]For example, the [[Otherreal]] is just as much [[inside]] as [[outside]]. The [[unconscious]] is not a purely [[inside|interior]] [[psychic]] [[system]] but an [[intersubjectivity|intersubjective]] [[structure]] -- "something strange to me, although it the unconscious is at the heart of meoutside"."<ref>S7, 71</ref>
===Subject as Ex-centric===Again, the [[Other]] is "something strange to me, although it is at the heart of me."<ref>{{S7}} p. 71</ref> Furthermore, the centre center of the [[subject ]] is [[outside]]; the [[subject ]] is [[existence|ex-centric]].<ref>see {{E, }} p.165, 171</ref>
===Topological Structure of Extimacy===The [[structure ]] of [[extimacy ]] is perfectly expressed in the [[topology ]] of the TORUs [[torus]] and of the [[moebius strip]]. The concept of extimacy has been further developed by [[Jacques-Alain Miller]] in his seminar of 1985-6.
