==Description==This [[seminar]] has been crucial for the wider dissemination of [[Lacan]]ian ideas in the [[humanities]] and [[social science]]s and it provides a constant reference point for [[Slavoj Zizek|Žižek]] as well as [[feminism|feminist]] [[criticism|critics]]. The [[seminar]] contains [[Lacan]]'s only reference to ''[[das Ding]]'' (the [[Thing]]) as well as his reflections on [[sublimation]] and ''[[jouissance]]''. The [[seminar]] is probably most well known though for [[Lacan]]'s discussion of [[Sophocles]]' [[ancient]] [[Greek]] [[tragedy]] ''[[Antigone]]'', where he elaborates one of his most influential definitions of the [[ethics|ethical]] [[act]] - "not to give way on one's desire" - and [[feminine]] [[sexuality]] in relation to [[courtly love]] [[poetry]]. This seminar is a very accessible and essential reading.  {| classalign="toccolourscenter" style="floatwidth: right600px; clearborder: right1px solid #aaa; margintext-align: 0 0 0.5em 1emleft;"|+ style="fontline-sizeheight: larger2.0em; marginpadding-left: 1em10px;"|-|- style="verticalwidth:100px;text-align: topleft; line-height:2.0em;"|style="backgroundpadding-left: #CCCCCC10px;" colspan="3" align=center|'''Download'''1959 - 1960|- style="verticalwidth:100px;text-align: topleft;"|* [httpline-height://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/19592.11.18.pdf 1959.11.18.pdf]* [http0em; padding-left://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1959.11.25.pdf 1959.11.25.pdf]* 10px;"| [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1959.12.02.pdf 1959.12.02.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1959.12.09.pdf 1959.12.09.pdfSeminar VII]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1959.12.16.pdf 1959.12.16.pdf]* [http| style="width://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1959.12.23.pdf 1959.12.23.pdf]* [http300px;text-align://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.01.13.pdf 1960.01.13.pdf]* [httpleft; line-height://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/19602.01.20.pdf 1960.01.20.pdf]* [http0em; padding-left://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.01.27.pdf 1960.01.27.pdf]* 10px;"| ''[http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.02.03.pdf 1960.02.03.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.02.10.pdf 1960.02.10.pdfSeminar VII|L'éthique de la psychanalyse]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.03.02.pdf 1960.03.02.pdf]* ''<BR><big>[http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.03.09.pdf 1960.03.09.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.03.16.pdf 1960.03.16.pdfSeminar VII|The Ethics of Psychoanalysis]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.03.23.pdf 1960.03.23.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.03.30.pdf 1960.03.30.pdf]* [http:/</{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.04.27.pdf 1960.04.27.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.05.04.pdf 1960.05.04.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.05.11.pdf 1960.05.11.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.05.18.pdf 1960.05.18.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.05.25.pdf 1960.05.25.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.06.01.pdf 1960.06.01.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.06.08.pdf 1960.06.08.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.06.22.pdf 1960.06.22.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.06.29.pdf 1960.06.29.pdf]* [http://{{Archive}}/seminaireVII/1960.07.06.pdf 1960.07.06.pdf]big>

==Back of the Book==Jacques Lacan dedicates this seventh year of his famous seminar to the problematic role of ethics in psychoanalysis[[Image:Sem.VII.jpg|border|300px|right]]
Delving At the root of the [[ethics]] is [[desire]], but a [[desire]] marked by the "fault". [[Analysis]]' only promise is austere: it is "the entrance into -the-I," ''l'entrée-en-Je''. "[[I]] must come to the [[place]] where the ''[[Id]]'' was," where the [[analysand]] discovers, in its absolute nakedness, the [[truth]] of his [[desire]]. The [[end]] of the [[cure]] is then the psychoanalystpurification of [[desire]]. [[Lacan]] makes [[three]] statements: one is only guilty of "having given in on one's inevitable involvement desire"; "the hero is the one who can be betrayed with ethical questions and impunity"; goods [[exist]], but "there is no [[other]] good than the one that can pay the attraction price of transgressionthe access to [[desire]]," a [[desire]] that is only valid insofar as it is [[desire]] to [[know]]. [[Lacan illuminates Freud]] lauds [[Oedipus]] at Colonus who calls down curses before dying, and he associates him with [[Antigone]], walled up alive, who has not given in at all. Both have rejected the [[right]] to live in [[order]] to enter the "in-between-two-deaths," - ''entre-deux-morts''s psychoanalytic work and its continued influence- that is immortality.
Since ''[[Le désir et son intépretation]]'', the [[analysis]] of the son's [[passion]] ([[subject]]) has become more pressing. Who is the [[Father]]? Here is the terrible [[Father]] of the [[primal horde]] (Freud's ''[[Totem and Taboo]]''); Luther's [[God]] with "his eternal [[hatred]] against men, a hatred that existed even before the [[world]] was [[born]]"; the [[father]] of the [[law]] who, as to [[Saint Paul]], leads to temptation: "For me, the very commandment - Thou shall not covet - which should lead to [[life]] has proved to be [[death]] to me. For sin, finding opportunity in the commandment, seduced me and by it killed me." [[Lacan explores ]] adds, "I have put the problem [[Thing]] in the place of sublimationsin," denouncing the complicity between the [[law]] and the [[Thing]], "which is called [[Evil]]." But what is the [[Thing]] against which the [[Father]] cannot or does not know how to [[defend]] himself? It has [[nothing]] to do with the [[object]], which is created by [[word]]s. It is the [[outside]] [[signifier]] and also the hostile outside [[signified]]: a mute reality prior to [[primal]] [[repression]] that puts in its place the pure [[signify]]ing web without being able to hide it. It is the center of the [[unconscious]] but it is excluded; it is the [[Real]] but always represented by an emptiness, the nonthing, ''l'a [[chose]]'', the nothing, a [[hole]] in the [[Real]] from which the [[Word]], the [[Signifier]], creates the paradox world. It is the place of deadly ''[[jouissance]]'' sanctioned by the [[prohibition]] of [[incest]]. It is associated with the [[mother]] who represents it by her [[manifest]] carnality, and with [[woman]] who, idealized in [[courtly love]], [[speak]]s the [[truth]]: "I am nothing but the emptiness which is in my cloaca." The [[idea]] of a distorted [[sexuality]] meets the 70s mantra: "[[There is no such thing as a sexual rapport]]." [[Woman]], who is the other, bears the burden of the curse, although the [[Thing]] is settled at the heart of all [[subject]]s who have to recognize it. Who am I? "You are the waste that falls in the world through the devil's anus." However, salvation holds on by a thread: the theme of the exquisiteness of the son's love for the [[father]] would be amplified in ''D'un [[Autre]] à l'autre''. This [[father]] is a [[symbolic]] [[Father]], he is all the essence more [[present]] for [[being]] [[absent]], a [[Father]] without a [[body]] or the glorious [[body]] of tragedy ([[signifier]]s, a reading [[father]] who can only be the [[object]] of an [[act]] of [[faith]], for: [[there is no Other of Sophoclethe Other]]" to [[guarantee]] him. [[Sublimation]] is an attempt to confront the [[Thing]]: [[true]] [[love]] for one's Antigone)[[neighbor]] consists in recognizing in him, as in oneself, the place and the tragic dimension wound of the [[Thing]]. As for disbelief, by rejecting the [[Thing]] it makes it reappear in the [[Real]], which is the [[Lacan]]ian definition of analytic experience[[psychosis]].
His exploration leads us to startling insights on If [[ethical]] [[thought]] "is at the centre of our [[work]] as [[analyst]]s,"then, in the [[cure]], [[ethics]] converges from two sides. On the side of the [[analysand]] is the problem of guilt and the consequence pathogenic [[nature]] of [[culture|civilised]] [[morality]]. [[Freud]] conceives of man'a basic [[conflict]] between the [[demand]]s relationship of [[culture|civilised]] [[morality]] and the essentially amoral [[sexual]] [[drive]]s of the patient. If morality takes the upper hand and the [[drives]] are too intense to desire" be [[sublimation|sublimated]], [[sexuality]] is either expressed in [[perversion|perverse]] forms or [[repression|repressed]]. [[Freud]] further develops this idea in his [[theory]] of an unconscious [[sense]] of [[guilt]] and in his [[concept]] of the conflicting judgments superego, that interior [[moral]] [[agency]] which becomes crueler to the extent that the ego submits to its [[demand]]s. The [[analyst]], on the other hand, has to deal with the pathogenic [[morality]] and [[unconscious]] [[guilt]] of ethics the [[patient]] and analysiswith the ethical problems that arise in the [[cure]].
==Summary==[[Lacan]] addresses the issue of how the [[analyst]] will respond to the [[patient]]'s sense of [[guilt]] by arguing that he must take it seriously, for whenever the [[patient]] feels [[guilty]] it is because he has given way to his [[desire]]: "the only thing of which one can be guilty is of having given ground relative to one's [[desire]]." As to the pathogenic morality acting through the [[superego]], [[Lacan]] asserts that [[psychoanalysis]] is not a libertine ethos. The ethical [[position]] of the [[analyst]] is revealed by the way that he formulates the [[goal]] of the [[cure]]. [[Ego-psychology]], for [[instance]], proposes a [[normative]] [[ethics]] in the [[adaptation]] of the [[ego]] to [[reality]]. [[Lacan]] opposes this stance and devises an [[ethics]] relating [[action]] to [[desire]]: "Have you acted in conformity with the [[desire]] that is in you?"
At Traditional [[ethics]] ([[Aristotle]], [[Kant]]) revolves around the root concept of the [[Good]], where different goods compete for the position of Supreme Good. [[Lacanian]] [[ethics]]see the [[Good]] as an obstacle in the path of [[desire]], thus "a [[repudiation]] of the idea of Good is necessary." It also rejects ideals, such as health and [[happiness]]. Traditional [[ethics]] tends to link the [[good]] to [[pleasure]]: moral thought has "developed along the paths of an hedonistic problematic." [[Lacan]] does not take such an approach because [[psychoanalytic]] [[experience]] has revealed the duplicity of [[pleasure]]: there is a [[limit]] to [[pleasure]] , and when it is [[desiretransgression|transgressed]], it becomes [[pain]]. ''[[Jouissance]]'' is the paradoxical [[satisfaction]] that the [[subject]] derives from his [[symptom]], but the [[suffering]] he derives from his [[satisfaction]]. Finally traditional [[ethics]] puts work and a safe, ordered [[existence]] before questions of [[desire]] marked by telling [[people]] to make their [[desire]]s wait. [[Lacan]] forces the "fault"[[subject]] to confront the relation between his actions and his [[desire]] in the immediacy of the present.
[[AnalysisLacan]] introduces the [[notion]]of ' only promise '[[das Ding]]'', the [[Thing]], via the opposition between the [[pleasure principle]] and the [[principle]] of [[reality]], this opposition, however, is austere: it deluding since the latter is "but a modification of the entrance into-former. Two are the-I," contexts where ''l[[das Ding]]'entrée-en-Je'operates. Firstly there is Freud'. "I must come to the place where the s [[distinction]] between ''IdWortvorstellungen'' was," where the [[analysandword-presentations]] discovers, and ''Sachvorstellungen'', [[thing-presentations]]. The two types are bound together in its absolute nakedness, the [[truthpreconscious]]-[[conscious]] of his [[desiresystem]], whereas in the unconscious only thing-presentations are found. The This seems to contradict the [[endlinguistic]] nature of the unconscious. [[cureLacan]] is then counters the purification of objection by pointing out that there are two [[words]] in [[desireGerman]]. for "[[Lacanthing]] makes three statements": * one is only ''[[das Ding]]'' and ''die Sache''. [[guiltFreud]]yemploys the latter to refer to [[the thing]] of "having given -presentations in on the unconscious, and if at onelevel 's 'Sachvorstellungen'' and ''Wortvorstellungen'' are opposed, on the [[desiresymbolic]]"; * "level they go together. ''Die Sache'' is the [[herorepresentation]] of a [[thing]] is in the one who can be betrayed with impunity"; * [[goodsymbolic]]s , whereas ''[[existdas Ding]], but "there '' is no other the [[goodthing]] than in the one that can pay [[real]], which is "the price beyond-of -the access -signified." Thing-presentations found in the unconscious are of linguistic nature, as opposed to ''[[desiredas Ding]]'',which is outside language and outside the unconscious. " a The [[desireThing]] is characterized by the fact that is only valid insofar as it is [[desireimpossible]] for us to knowimagine it. "
[[Lacan]] laudes [[Oedipus at Colonus]] who calls down curses before [[death|dying]], and he associates him with [[Antigone]], walled up alive, who has not given in at all.
Both have rejected the right to live in order to enter the "[[between the two deaths|in-between-two-deaths]]," - ''entre-deux-morts'' - that is [[immortality]].
Since Yet,in relation to ''Le désir et son intépretation[[jouissance]]'', as well as being the object of [[analysislanguage]] , ''[[das Ding]]'' is the [[object of desire]]. It is the [[lost object]] which must be continually looked for, the sonunforgettable [[Other, the]] [[prohibition|forbidden]] [[object]] of [[incest]]uous [[desire]], the [[mother]]. The [[Thing]] appears to the subject as the Supreme Good, but if the [[subject]] [[transgression|trangresses]] the [[pleasure principle]] and attains it, it is experienced as suffering or/and [[evil]] because the [[subject]] "cannot stand the extreme good that ''[[das Ding]]''s passion (may bring on him." It would seem then fortunately that the [[subjectThing]]) has become more pressingis usually inaccessible.

This [[father]] is a [[symbolic]] [[Father]], he is all the more present for being [[absent]], a [[Father]] without a [[body]] or the glorious body of [[signifier]]s, a [[father]] who can only be the [[object]] of an [[act]] of faith, for: there is no [[Other of the Other]] to [[guarantee]] him.
[[Sublimation]] is an attempt to confront the [[Thing]]: true [[love]] for one's [[neighbor]] consists in recognizing in him, as in oneself, the [[place]] and the wound of the [[Thing]].
As for dis[[belief]], by [[rejecting]] the [[thing]] it makes it [[appearance|reappear]] in the [[Real]], which is the [[Lacan]]ian [[definition]] of [[psychosis]].
 
If [[ethical]] [[thought]] "is at the centre of our work as [[analyst]]s," then, in the [[cure]], [[[[ethics]]]] converges from two sides.
On the side of the [[analysand]] is the problem of [[[[guilt]]]] and the [[pathogenic]] nature of [[civilised]] [[morality]].
[[Freud]] conceives of a basic conflict between the [[demand]]s of [[civilised]] [[morality]] and the essentially amoral [[sexual]] [[drive]]s of the [[[[patient]]]].
If [[morality]] takes the upper hand and the [[drive]]s are too intense to be [[sublimate]]d, [[sexuality]] is either expressed in [[perverse]] forms or [[repressed]].
[[Freud]] further develops this idea in his [[theory]] of an [[unconscious]] sense of [[[[guilt]]]] and in his concept of the [[superego]], that [[interior]] [[moral]] [[agency]] which becomes [[cruel]]er to the extent that the [[ego]] submits to its [[demand]]s.
The [[analyst]], on the other hand, has to deal with the [[pathogenic]] [[morality]] and [[unconscious]] [[[[guilt]]]] of the [[[[patient]]]] and with the [[ethical]] problems that arise in the [[cure]].
 
[[Lacan]] addresses the issue of how the [[analyst]] will respond to the [[[[patient]]]]'s sense of [[guilt]] by arguing that he must take it seriously, for whenever the [[patient]] feels [[guilt]]y it is because he has given way to his [[desire]]: "the only [[thing]] of which one can be [[guilt]]y is of having given ground relative to one's [[desire]]."
 
As to the [[pathogenic]] [[morality]] acting through the [[superego]], [[Lacan]] asserts that [[psychoanalysis]] is not a [[libertine]] [[ethos]].
The [[ethical]] [[position]] of the [[analyst]] is revealed by the way that he formulates the [[goal]] of the ]]cure]].
[[Ego-psychology]], for instance, proposes a [[normative]] [[ethics]] in the [[adaptaion]] of the [[ego]] to [[reality]].
[[Lacan]] opposes this stance and devises an [[ethics]] relating [[action]] to [[desire]]: "Have you acted in conformity with the [[desire]] that is in you?"
Traditional [[ethics]] ([[Aristotle]], [[Kant]]) revolves around the concept of the [[Good]], where different [[good]]s compete for the position of Supreme [[Good]].
[[Lacan]]ian [[ethics]] see the [[Good]] as an obstacle in the path of [[desire]], thus "a repudiation of the idea of Good is necessary."
It also [[reject]]s [[ideal]]s, such as [[health]] and [[happiness]].
Traditional [[ethics]] tends to link the [[good]] to [[[[pleasure]]]]: [[moral]] [[thought]] has "developed along the paths of an [[hedonistic]] problematic."
 
[[Lacan]] does not take such an approach because [[psychoanalytic]] [[experience]] has revealed the duplicity of [[pleasure]]: there is a limit to [[pleasure]], and when it is transgressed, it becomes pain.
''[[jouissance]]'' is the paradoxical [[satisfaction]] that the [[subject]] derives from his [[symptom]], the suffering he derives from his [[satisfaction]].
Finally traditional [[ethics]] puts work and a safe, ordered [[existence]] before questions of [[desire]] by telling people to make their [[desire]]s wait.
[[Lacan]] forces the [[subject]] to confront the relation between his [[action]]s and his [[desire]] in the immediacy of the [[present]].
 
[[Lacan]] introduces the notion of ''[[das Ding]]'', the [[Thing]], via the opposition between the [[pleasure principle]] and the [[reality principle|principle of reality]], this opposition, however, is deluding since the latter is but a modification of the former.
Two are the contexts where ''[[das Ding]]'' operates.
Firstly there is [[Freud]]'s distinction between ''Wortvorstellungen'', [[word-presentation]]s, and ''Sachvorstellungen'', [[thing-presentation]]s.
The two types are bound together in the [[preconscious]]-[[conscious]] [[system]], whereas in the [[unconscious]] only [[thing-presentation]]s are found.
This seems to contradict the [[linguistic]] nature of the [[unconscious]].
[[Lacan]] counters the objection by pointing out that there are two words in [[German]] for "[[thing]]": ''[[das Ding]]'' and ''die Sache''.
[[Freud]] employs the latter to refer to the [[thing-presentation]]s in the [[unconscious]] , and if at one level ''Sachvorstellungen'' and ''Wortvorstellungen'' are opposed, on the [[symbolic]] level they go together.
''Die Sache'' is the [[representation]] of a [[thing]] in the [[symbolic]], whereas ''[[das Ding]]'' is the [[thing]] in the [[real]], which is "the beyond-of-the-signified."
[[Thing-presentations]] found in the [[unconscious]] are of [[linguistic]] nature, as opposed to ''[[das Ding]]'', which is [[outside]] [[language]] and [[outside]] the [[unconscious]] .
"The [[thing]] is characterized by the fact that it is [[impossible]] for us to imagine it."
 
Yet, in relation to ''[[jouissance]]'', as well as being the [[object]] of [[language]], ''[[das Ding]]'' is the [[object]] of [[desire]].
It is the [[lost]] [[object]] which must be continually looked for, the unforgettable [[Other]], the [[forbidden]] [[object]] of [[incest]]uous [[desire]], the [[mother]].
The [[thing]] appears to the [[subject]] as the Supreme [[Good]], but if the [[subject]] [[trangress]]es the [[pleasure principle]] and attains it, it is experienced as [[suffering]] or/and [[evil]] because the [[subject]] "cannot stand the extreme [[good]] that ''[[das Ding]]'' may bring on him."
It would seem then fortunately that the [[thing]] is usually [[inaccessible]].
 
 
 
==Definition==
 
At the end of the [[Ethics of Psychoanalysis]], the [[seminar]] in which the central question of the relationship between [[action] and the [[desire]] that inhabits us is explored in its [[tragic]] dimension, [[Lacan]] reminds us again of this other, [[comic]] dimension:
 
<blockquote>However little time I have thus far devoted to the comic here, you have been able to see that there, too, it is a question of the relationship between action and desire, and of the former's fundamental failure to catch up with the latter.<ref>SVII, p. 313</ref></blockquote>
 
Indeed, the “relationship between [[action]] and [[desire]]” is what defines the field of [[ethics]],
 
This [[seminar]] proves the importance [[Lacan]] attributed to the question of [[ethics]].
 
He was to return again and again to the problematic of the [[ethics]] seminar, starting from the [[seminar]] of the following year ([[Transference]]) up to [[Encore]] (1972-3) which starts with a reference to the [[seminar]]s on [[The Ethics of Psychoanalysis]].
 
In fact it is in [[Encore] where [[Lacan]] states that his [[ethics]] [[seminar]] was the only one he wanted to rewrite and publish as a written text.<ref>xx 53</ref>
