[[Freud]] referred to the fundamental mechanisms involved in the [[formation]]s of the [[unconscious]] as [[condensation]] and [[displacement]], which [[Lacan]] redefines as [[metaphor]] and [[metonymy]]. With the former, the play of [[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]] [[word]]s appear and function like "the [[metonymic]] ruins of the [[object]]."
In "[[LacanThe Subversion of the Subject and the Dialectic of Desire in the Freudian Unconscious]] plays with the term ,"written in 1960, [[insistenceLacan]]states that " in order to recall repetition, it is not the characteristic of law that bars the [[signifying chainsubject]] in the 's access to <i>[[unconsciousjouissance]]. "The unconscious is neither primordial nor instinctual; what it knows about the elementary is </i> but the elements of the signifier[[pleasure]]." In 1966 he will add a previous writing, final [[sentence]]: "[[The Agency of the Letter in the Unconscious or Reason since FreudCastration]]," he defines the unconscious as a memory that can be compared to that of modern thinking-machines where the chain means that insists on reproducing itself in the <i>[[transferencejouissance]] </i> must be refused, so that it can be found, and which is reached on the inverted ladder (<i>échelle inversée</i>) of the [[chainLaw]] of [[dead]] [[desire]]."
