[[Image:Lacan-Seminaire-Livre-VI.png|border|300px|right]] [[Desire ]] has to be placed at the heart of [[analysis|analytic ]] [[theory ]] and [[practice]]: the title of the [[seminar ]] does not indicate a mere juxtaposition of the two [[terms]], it ties [[them ]] around the essential function of [[language]]. [[Desire]], if the [[libido ]] is its [[psychic energy]], indicates the [[subject]]'s dependency on the signifiers [[signifier]]s which constitute the [[structure ]] proper. This is what the [[cure]], based on [[speech]], must make clear beyond the [[analysand]]'s [[demand]]. [[Lacan ]] even asserts that "[[desire ]] is its own [[interpretation]]." In approaching this [[seminar ]] one might be aided by [[reading ]] the seven lessons on <i>[[Hamlet ]]</i> (1959) published by [[Jacques-Alain Miller ]] in <i>[[Ornicar? ]]</i> in 1983. After [[Freud ]] [[Lacan ]] offers a new [[interpretation]]. <i>[[Hamlet ]]</i> is the [[tragedy ]] of [[desire]]: this is why "we are in the midst of [[clinical ]] [[experience]]." What is this "bird-catcher net in which [[man]]'s [[desire ]] is articulated according to the coordinates of [[Freud]], [[Oedipus ]] and [[castration]]?" The [[structural ]] [[analysis ]] of the play, which [[orders ]] not only the characters' positions but also the succession of events, should lead us to "situate the meaning and direction (<i>le sens</i>) of [[desire]]." The enigma is that of [[Hamlet]]'s inability to [[act]]: he cannot kill Claudius - his father's killer, his mother's lover, and the usurper) - he cannot [[love ]] Ophelia, "he cannot [[want]]." When, at the end, he discovers his desire - by fighting Laertes in the [[hole ]] that has been dug out to bury Ophelia - this revelation is ineluctably linked to the [[death ]] in which they all [[disappear]]. This tragedy shed light on the masculine drama of desire and on the [[anxiety ]] of "To be or not to be," hopeless truth of modern man. On the [[Father]]'s side, the disappointment is beyond remedy: "[[There is no Other of the Other]]." The [[dead ]] King wanders in quest of an [[impossible ]] redemption. The [[Other]], the [[place ]] of [[truth]], does not contain the [[signifier ]] that could be the [[guarantor ]] of such [[truth]]. The [[phallus ]] is unavailable in the [[Other]], which is rendered by the [[sign]]: - F. This would explain the almost desperate tone in [[Lacan]]'s next [[seminar]], <i>L'éthique...</i>. What if the [[masculine ]] [[subject ]] turns toward his [[mother ]] to praise her [[woman]]'s dignity? Then he comes up against what she manifests of her [[desire]]: "not [[desire, ]] but a gluttony that is engulfing." The [[horror ]] of [[femininity ]] rules over the play and hits Ophelia, the virgin fiancée, in the face. Her [[character ]] is fascinating because it embodies "the drama of the [[feminine ]] [[object ]] caught in the snare of [[masculine ]] [[desire]]," but above all because she is at the same [[time ]] the [[object ]] and the touchstone of [[desire]]: <i>[[objet a ]]</i> ([[part object]]) of [[desire ]] and [[phallus ]] ([[present ]] in Ophelia). The two terms are not quite distinguished and if Ophelia can only be discovered in [[mourning ]] - "I loved Ophelia" - such [[mourning ]] is both that of the [[object ]] and that of the [[phallus]]. Against [[Jones]], whose definition of [[aphanisis ]] was an attempt to find in the [[fear ]] of [[being ]] deprived of one's [[desire ]] a factor common to both [[sexes]], [[Lacan ]] maintains a radical asymmetry in the rapport to the [[phallic signifier]]. [[Man ]] "is not without having it" and [[woman ]] "is without having it." The only [[object of desire]], and at the same time its only [[signifier]], seems indeed to be the [[phallus]], which only appears "in flashes," during decisive phallophanias where death is at the rendez-vous. [[Slavoj Zizek ]] [[notes ]] that for [[Lacan ]] the [[phallus ]] is the pure [[signifier ]] that stands for its own opposite, that it functions as the [[signifier ]] of [[castration]]. The transition from pre-[[symbolic ]] [[antagonism ]] (the [[Real]]) to the [[symbolic order ]] where signifiers [[signifier]]s are related to meaning takes place by way of this pure [[signifier]], without [[signified]]. "In [[order ]] for the field of meaning to emerge, for the series of signifiers [[signifier]]s to [[signify ]] something, there must be a [[signifier ]] that stands for [[nothing]], a signifying [[signify]]ing element whose very [[presence ]] stands for the [[absence ]] of [[meaning]], or rather for the [[absence ]] <i>tout court</i>." This [[nothing ]] is the [[subject ]] itself, "the [[subject ]] <i>[[qua ]]</i> [[S]]." This Lacanian [[Lacan]]ian [[matheme ]] designates the [[subject ]] deprived of all [[content]]. ==English=={| class="wikitable" style="width:100%"|Author(s)|Title|Publisher|Year|Pages|Language|Size|Extension| rowspan="1" |Mirrors|-|[[Jacques Lacan]]|Desire And The Interpretation Of Desire In Hamlet|Yale [[University]] Press|1977|43|English|3 Mb|pdf|[http://library1.org/_ads/05D08E01D9CC68A43F8579A96A005C8A <nowiki>[1]</nowiki>], [http://libgen.io/get.php?md5=05D08E01D9CC68A43F8579A96A005C8A <nowiki>[2]</nowiki>], [http://b-ok.cc/md5/05D08E01D9CC68A43F8579A96A005C8A <nowiki>[3]</nowiki>], [http://libgen.me/item/detail/id/359746 <nowiki>[4]</nowiki>], [http://bookfi.net/md5/05D08E01D9CC68A43F8579A96A005C8A <nowiki>[5]</nowiki>]|} == French == {| class="wikitable floatright" width="200px" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="right" bgcolor="#ffffff" style="float:right;margin-left:10px;line-height:2.0em;
