Instead of confining himself to the standard texts in [[psychiatry]] and [[psychoanalysis]], [[Lacan]] read widely, with a special interest in the [[philosophy|philosophical work]] of [[Karl Jaspers]], [[G.W.F. Hegel]] and [[Martin Heidegger]]. He attended the [[seminar]]s on [[Hegel]] given by [[Alexandre Kojève]] together with many of the thinkers who would leave their mark on [[France|French]] intellectual life, [[Georges Bataille]], Raymond Aron, Pierre Klossowski and Raymond Queneau.
=====EditMarriage=====In [[{{Y}}#1934|1934]], [[Lacan]] [[married]] [[Marie-Louise Blondin]], the sister of his friend the surgeon [[Sylvain Blondin]]. Three [[children]] were [[born]] from this [[marriage]], [[Caroline]] in [[{{Y}}#1934||1934]], [[Thibaut]] in [[{{Y}}#1939|1939]] and [[Sibylle]] in [[{{Y}}#1940|1940]]. =====The Marienbad Congress=====[[Lacan]] made his first intervention at the annual Congress of the [[International Psychoanalytical Association]], held at [[Marienbad]], in [[{{Y}}#1936|1936]]. He developed the thesis of the "[[mirror phase]]." The original text of this paper is lost, but the brilliant article on the [[family]] which [[Lacan]] contributed to the ''[[Encyclopédie Française]]'' in [[{{Y}}#1938|1938]], together with a later version of the paper, presents the argument clearly.<!-- But his paper was interruted by the chairman of the session, Ernest Jones, Freud's biographer. -->
