[[Image:Sem.V.jpg|border|300px|right]]The formations [[formation]]s of the [[unconscious ]] are those circumstances in which the laws [[law]]s of the [[unconscious ]] are most discernible: the [[joke]], the [[dream]], the [[symptom]], the [[lapsus ]] ([[parapraxis]]). [[Freud ]] referred to the fundamental mechanisms involved in the formations [[formation]]s of the [[unconscious ]] as [[condensation ]] and [[displacement]], which [[Lacan ]] redefines as [[metaphor ]] and [[metonymy]]. With the former, the play of signifiers [[signifier]]s creates [[sense ]] in nonsense in relation to [[truth]]. The latter reveals the [[lack ]] of a [[word]], "an item of waste sent like a ball between [[code ]] and [[message]]." In this [[lack ]] [[substitute words ]] [[word]]s appear and function like "the [[metonymic ]] ruins of the [[object]]." At the junction between [[psychoanalysis ]] and [[linguistics]], [[Lacan ]] wants to [[formalize ]] the primordial laws [[law]]s of the [[unconscious ]] that [[Freud ]] had uncovered. His [[project ]] is to define a [[topology ]] of the levels of functioning of the signifier in the subject by elaborating the graphs [[graph]]s that, under the generic [[name ]] of [[Graph of Desire]], will be at the core of "[[The Subversion of the Subject and the Dialectic of Desire in the Freudian Unconscious]]" written in 1960 and published in 1966 in <i>[[Écrits]]</i>. Here the key [[concept ]] is that of [[desire]], and [[Lacan]]'s [[dialectic ]] of [[desire ]] is quite distinct from [[Hegel]]'s. The Graph of Desire will serve as a [[topology ]] of the different steps constitutive of the [[subject]]. "It is precisely because desire is articulated that it is not articulable" in a [[signifying chain]]. [[Slavoj Zizek ]] commenting on this formulation argues that [[subject ]] is not substance, "it has not substantial positive [[being ]] in itself, being caught between 'not yet' and 'no longer'. The [[subject ]] never is, it will have been - either it is not yet here or it is no longer here, since there is only a trace of its [[absence]]." The [[subject]] is dependent on the [[recognition]] of the [[Other]] who embodies "the legitimacy of the code," he alone can ratify a word as a [[joke]], as stupidity or as [[madness]]. With the [[Other]], [[Lacan]] moves on to the [[analysis]] of the [[Oedipus complex]]. [[Three]] [[stages]] [[structure]] the [[constitution]] of the [[subject]]. First, the [[paternal metaphor]] [[acts]] intrinsically on account of the primacy given to the [[phallus]] by [[culture]]. Then, the father intervenes as the one who deprives the [[mother]]: to her he addresses the [[message]] "You will not reintegrate your product" - the [[child]] as [[phallic]] [[object]]. The [[child]] receives "a [[message]] on the [[message]]," in the [[form]] of "You will not [[sleep]] with your mother" that liberates and deprives him of the object of his [[desire]]. From the alternative "To be or not to be the [[phallus]]," he can move to the alternative "To have it or not to have it." The [[third]] [[moment]] - the exit out of the [[Oedipus complex]] - requires the [[intervention]] of the permissive and generous father who, preferred over the [[mother]], gives [[birth]] to the [[idea]] of the [[ego]]. It is in this context that the problems of becoming boy or [[girl]] - of the inverted [[Oedipus complex]] are raised. [[Lacan]] plays with the term "[[insistence]]" in [[order]] to [[recall]] [[repetition]], the characteristic of the [[signifying chain]] in the [[unconscious]]. "The unconscious is neither primordial nor [[instinctual]]; what it [[knows]] [[about]] the elementary is but the elements of the signifier." In a previous [[writing]], "[[The Agency of the Letter in the Unconscious or Reason since Freud]]," he defines the unconscious as a [[memory]] that can be compared to that of modern [[thinking]]-machines where the chain that insists on reproducing itself in the [[transference]] can be found, and which is the [[chain]] of [[dead]] [[desire]]. In "[[The Subversion of the Subject and the Dialectic of Desire in the Freudian Unconscious]]," written in 1960, [[Lacan]] states that "it is not the law that bars the [[subject]]'s access to <i>[[jouissance]]</i> but [[pleasure]]." In 1966 he will add a final [[sentence]]: "[[Castration]] means that <i>[[jouissance]]</i> must be refused, so that it can be reached on the inverted ladder (<i>échelle inversée</i>) of the [[Law]] of [[desire]]."

"The subject is dependent on the recognition [[signification]] of the Other who embodies phallus"the legitimacy of the code," he alone can ratify a word as (<i>[[Écrits: A Selection]]</i>) is a joke, as stupidity or as madness. With the Other, Lacan moves on to the analysis of the Oedipus complex. Three stages structure the constitution of the subject. First, the paternal metaphor acts intrinsically on account of the primacy lecture given to at the phallus by culture. Then, the father intervenes as the one who deprives the mother: to her he addresses the message "You will not reintegrate your product" - the child as phallic objectMax Planck Institute in Munich in 1958. The child receives "a message on the message," in All the form of "You will not sleep with your mother" that liberates research accomplished during <i>La relation d'[[objet]]</i> and deprives him of the object of his desire. From the alternative "To be or not to be the phallus<i>Les [[formations]] de l'[[inconscient]]</i> culminates here," he can move to the alternative "To have it or not to have it." The third moment - the exit out of the Oedipus complex - requires the intervention of the permissive and generous father who, preferred over the mother, gives birth serves as an introduction to the idea of the ego. It is in this context that the problems of becoming boy or girl - of the inverted Oedipus complex are raised<i>Le [[désir]] et son [[interpretation]].</i><br>

Lacan plays with The alternative seems ineluctable: either the [[Mother]] or the [[Father]]. To choose the [[Mother]] means to be condemned to the dependency of [[demand]], while the [[Father]] constitutes the access to [[desire]], hence to salvation. If the term "insistence" in order [[Father]] must be preferred to recall repetitionthe [[Mother]], if the characteristic [[Father]] is the origin and the [[representative]] of [[culture]] (and of the signifying chain in [[Law]]), it is because he possesses the unconscious[[phallus]] that he can give or refuse. The absolute primacy of the [[phallus]] - the single emblem of Man - has become a [[real]] doctrinal (perhaps dogmatic) basis of [[Lacanian]] [[theory]]: "The unconscious [[phallus]] is neither primordial nor instinctual; what it knows about the elementary [[signifier]] of [[signifier]]s, the privileged signifier of that mark in which the [[role]] of the [[logos]] is but joined with the elements advent of [[desire]]," its function "touches on its most profound rapport: that in which the Ancients embodied the <i>Nous</i>, the [[Mind]], and the signifier<i>Logos</i>, [[discourse]], [[reason]]." In Why such a previous writing, privilege? "The Agency This [[signifier]] is chosen as the most tangible element in the real of [[sexual]] copulation; it is the Letter most [[symbolic]] in the Unconscious or Reason literal sense," since Freud"it is equivalent to the [[logical]] copula." Moreover," he defines by virtue of its turgidity, it epitomizes the unconscious as a memory that can be compared to that [[image]] of modern thinking-machines where the chain that insists on reproducing itself vital flow as it is transmitted in generation." [[Freud]] says, there is only one [[libido]], [[masculine]] in the transference can be found[[nature]]. Later, and which [[Lacan]] will assert that "[[there is no such thing as sexual rapport]]," <i>[[il n'y a pas de rapport sexuel]]</i>, in the chain sense of dead desireproportion or relation: one sex counts for both [[sexes]]. Thus the [[phallus]] can only appear as veiled.
