[[==Sigmund Freud]] talks about the "splitting of the ego" (Ger. ''Ich-spaltung'', Fr. ''clivage du moi'') as a process, observable in [[fetishism]] and [[psychosis]], whereby two contradictory attitudes to reality come to exist side by side in the [[ego]]; those of acceptance and [[disavowal]].<ref>(see Freud, 1940b)</ref>==
[[LacanFreud]] amplifies described the concept "[[splitting of the ego]]" ([[German]]: ''[[Ich-spaltung]]''Spaltung, [[French]]: ''[[clivage du moi]]'' to designate not a ) in his analysis of [[fetishism]] and [[psychosis]] as the process unique in which two contradictory attitudes come to exist side by side in the [[fetishismego]] or - [[psychosisacceptance]] but a general characteristic of and [[subjectdisavowal]]ivity itself.<ref>Freud. 1940b.</ref>
The [[subject]] can never be anything other than divided, split, [[alienation|alienated]] from himself.==Jacques Lacan==
The [[splitLacan]] is irreducible, can never be healed; there is no possibility expands the concept of synthesis''[[spaltung]]'' (from a process unique to [[fetishism]] or [[psychosis]]) to a general characteristic of [[subject]]ivity itself.
The [[splitsubject]] or 'can never be anything other than [[split|divided]] , [[subjectsplit]]' is , [[symbolizationalienation|symbolisedalienated]] by the [[bar]] which strikes through the S to produce the barred subject, Sfrom himself.<ref>(see E, 288)</ref>
The [[split]] denotes the [[impossibility]] of the ideal is irreducible, can never be healed; there is no possibility of a fully present [[self-consciousnesssynthesis]].
The [[split]] or '[[split|divided]] [[subject]]' is [[symbolization|symbolised]] by the [[bar]] which strikes through the <i>'''S'''</i> to produce the [[bar]]red [[subject]], <i>'''$'''</i>.<ref>{{E}} p.288</ref> The [[split]] denotes the [[impossibility]] of the [[ideal]] of a fully present [[self-consciousness]]. The [[subject]] will never [[know ]] himself [[completely]], but will always be cut off from his own [[knowledge]].
It thus indicates the [[presence]] of the [[unconscious]], and is an effect of the [[signifier]].
The [[subject]] is [[split]] by the very fact that he is a '"[[speaking being']],"<ref>{{E }} p.269</ref> since because [[speech]] [[divides ]] the [[subject]] of the [[enunciation]] from the [[subject]] of the statement.
In his [[seminar]] of 1964-5 [[Lacan]] theorises the [[split]] [[subject]] in terms of a [[division ]] between [[truth]] and [[knowledge]] (''[[savoir]]'').<ref>(see {{Ec, }} p.856)</ref>
