1953 - 1954 Les écrits techniques de Freud
Freud's Papers on Technique


Lacan's first public seminar is held at Sainte-Anne Hospital soon after the establishment of the Société Française de Psychanalyse (SFP).


It is concerned with questions of psychoanalytic technique such as those of resistance, transference and therapeutic efficiency -- within the framework of a "return to Freud".

It also includes lengthy discussions of the clinical and theoretical work of contemporary psychoanalysts such as Michael Balint and Melanie Klein, as well as St Augustine and Jean-Paul Sartre.


This seminar includes elaboration of Lacan's notions of the symbolic, the imaginary and the real, the importance of speech and language in psychoanalysis and the interpretation to be put on the mirror stage.

His teaching is framed in a broad meditation where psychoanalysis verges on philosophy, theology, linguistics, mysticism, and game theory.


Lacan develops his schema of the inverted bouquet (Bouquet renversé).

The mirror stage becomes part of the topography of the Imaginary.

Lacan subordinates the Imaginary to the Symbolic

Lacan appeals to the science of optics to systematize his previous analyzes of the specular relation.

Lacan associates the "misconstruction" [méconnaissance) that characterizes the ego with negation (dénégation).
