==Introduction to Encore==
<small>''(The following is an excerpt from an [https://www.lacan.com/symptom14/introduction-to.html "Introduction to Encore" by Francois Regnault])''</small><BR>
Thus this is no wonder that ''jouissance'' (of which one must not forget the [[legal ]] origin, fruit and tenure) is introduced early in its opposition to the functional: "''Jouissance'' is what is useless." The [[superego]], the [[concept ]] of [[Freud]]'s second [[topography ]] to which he gave a repressive [[meaning ]] ([[Kant]]'s [[Moral ]] Law), Lacan did not consider it less brutal, but he also deems it [[obscene]], and changes its orientation by enjoining it ''Jouis!'' (Yes, I mean the Law, I heard, ''j'ouis'', her [[voice]], and she becomes my [[desire]]). And soon taking up residence in the field of sexuality, this approach brings about the following statements: a) "The ''jouissance'' of the Other, of the Other's [[body ]] that symbolizes it, is not a [[sign ]] of love." b) "Ultimately, one person's body is just a part of the Other's body." c) Finally,"…it is the Other who ''jouit''."<ref>Lacan J., Encore, [[The Seminar ]] of [[Jacques lacan|Jacques Lacan]], Book XX, 1972-1973, New York: W.W. Norton, 1998, p.23.</ref> Then, "there is a [[hole ]] there and that hole is called the Other."<ref>''Ibid'', p. 113</ref>] Later on Lacan will declare that "the Other doesn't [[exist]]."
===Sexuality===3. From then on a [[relationship ]] between ''jouissance'' and sexuality is articulated (according to a [[topology ]] that will be developed later on in the seminar), a relationship which cannot be reduced to the [[male ]] and [[female ]] orgasms, but one that will meet the obstacle of [[choice ]] set up by [[psychoanalysis]], namely that "there is no [[sexual relationship]]" and that will be resolved by way of love, made up for its [[absence]]. "What makes up the [[Sexual Relationship|sexual relationship ]] is, quite precisely, love."<ref>''Ibid'', p. 44</ref>

5. So there, psychoanalysis feels embarrassed with this other ''jouissance'', and the following [[statement]] reveals the discomfort: "Were there another ''jouissance'' than phallic ''jouissance'', it shouldn't be/could never fail to be that one." From there on the [[paradox]] is established: in fact there is no other than phallic ''jouissance'' (such as orgasm, detumescence, the primacy of the [[phallus]], etc.) "except the one concerning which woman doesn't breathe a [[word]]." Psychoanalysis therefore assumes here that woman is capable of an unverifiable ''jouissance'', other (other than the one Charles de Brosses, a libertine from the eighteenth century, boasted to recognize in the traits of Bernini's ''Saint Theresa''). It is then necessary to Lacan to resort to a Stoic [[logic]] according to which [[truth]] is deduced from the [[false]]: "Suppose that there is [[another]] ([[true]]!)—but there isn't (false!)." The [[doubt]] remains, after all, and it weighs heavily: the male is intrigued and ponders over the [[notion]] that woman is not, is never whole, or ''encore'' that The woman (as a whole) does not exist. "There is a ''jouissance'' that is hers (the woman), that belongs to that ‘she' that doesn't exist and doesn't [[signify]] anything."<ref>''Ibid'', p. 74</ref> Hence the [[idea]] that we are dealing with "a ''jouissance'' that is in the realm of the infinite."<ref>''Ibid'', p. 103</ref> And "Why not [[interpret]] one face of the [[Other, the]] God face, as based on feminine ''jouissance''?"<ref>''Ibid'', p. 77</ref> ==21 novembre Novembre 1972==
First [[session]]. « [[About]] [[jouissance]] ». Published in [[french]] as early as in 1975, Encore may be the most emblematic [[Lacan]]'s Séminaire. First, plenty of [[ideas]] developped in it are significant and will renew psychoanlytic [[theory]] for years; then, Lacan's style reaches its highest point in the countless ways he distorts [[language]] and plays with it. During Encore, the final [[formalization]] of the non-[[existence]] of the [[sexual]] rapport (with the [[sexuation]] [[formulas]] table) and the [[full]] completion of jouissance's theory will progressively give way to what will become the topologic period of Lacan's teaching. In the end of Encore, he introduces his famous booromean [[knot]] on which he'll [[work]] during his last 8 years. The US edition is called The [[Seminar]], Book XX : On [[feminine]] [[sexuality]], the limits of [[love]] and [[knowledge]] : Encore. In this first session, Lacan speaks about love and jouissance.
==20 février Février 1973==
A central (and really beautiful) session in this central Séminaire. Lacan speaks about the specificity of the [[feminine jouissance]] and the mystical jouissance. In the published version, the chapter is called "Dieu et la jouissance de La [[Femme]]" ("God and the jouissance of The [[Woman]] »).
extract : "And why not [[interpreting]] a face of the [[Other]], the face of God, like supported by feminine jouissance".
