Jacques-Marie Émile Lacan (April 13, 1901 – September 9, 1981) was a French psychiatrist and psychoanalyst.

One of the most important -- and controversial -- figures in the history of psychoanalysis, Lacan is also acknowledged for his influence across a broad range of disciplines, from film and literary theory to political philosophy and cultural studies.

Biography

In 1927, Lacan begins his clincial training in psychiatry at the Sainte-Anne hospital, where he would later teach.

In 1932, Lacan publishes his doctoral disseration (On paranoiac psychosis in its relations to the personality).

In 1936, Lacan presents his paper on the mirror stage to the fourteenth congress of the IPA at Marienbad on 3 August.

In 1953, Lacan begins his first public seminar in Hôpital Sainte-Anne.

In 1934, Lacan begins his analysis with Rudolph Loewenstein, and joins the Société Psychoanalytique de Paris (SPP) as a candidate member.

In 1938, Lacan becomes a full member of the Société psychanalytique de Paris (SPP).

Since 1938, Lacan was a member of the SPP, which was a member body of the International Psychoanalytical Association (IPA).


In 1951, the SPP begins to raise the issue of Lacan's practice of using sessions of variable duration, as opposed to the standard analytical hour.

Lacan defends his use of short sessions.

In 1953, Lacan is elected president of the SPP.

However, six months later he resigns from the SPP to join the Société Française de Psychanalyse (SFP) with D. Lagache, F. Dolto, J. Favez-Boutonier among others.

The SFP sought to become recognized by the IPA as a member society.

In 1963, the SFP is granted affiliation to the IPA as a member society on condition that Lacan be removed from the list of training analysts.

In 1963, Lacan resigns from the SFP and founds his own school, the École Freudienne de Paris (EFP).

In 1980, Lacan dissolves the EFP and creates in its stead the Cause freudienne.

In 1981, the Cause freudienne is dissolved and the École de la Cause freudienne is created to replace it.

Lacan dies in Paris on 9 September, 1981 at the age of eighty.
