===Book II: The Ego in Freud's Theory and in the Technique of Psychoanalysis====Short Summary==Short Summary===
The [[Seminars|second seminar]] is a study of [[Freud]]'s ''[[Beyond the Pleasure Principle]]'' - a central text throughout [[Lacan]]'s career.
This [[seminar]] also contains an early short version of ''[[The Purloined Letter]]'' paper and some rather strange reflections on language and cybernetics.
=====Long Summary=====
[[Lacan]] deliberates on the distinction made in his first seminar between [[Seminar II|discourse analysis]] and the [[Seminar II|analysis of the ego]], both in relation to [[psychoanalytic theory]] and [[practice]].
With Lacan in Freud's ‘’Wo Es war, soll Ich werden’’, ‘’Es’’ is the subject. It knows him or doesn't. The further, more exacting insight, is It speaks or doesn't. At the end of analysis, it is It who must be called on to speak, and to enter in relation with real Others. Where ‘’S’’ was, there the ‘’Ich’’ should be.
