Jacques Lacan subsequently drew on Sartre's theory of the gaze to link scopophilia with the apprehension of the other: " the gaze is this object lost and suddenly refound in the conflagration of shame, by the introduction of the other ".

Also influential in these issues were Nietzsche, Heidegger, the critical theory of the Frankfurt School, Derrida and Lacan.

American scholar David Bordwell has spoken against many prominent developments film theory since the 1970s, i. e., he uses the humorously derogatory term " SLAB theory " to refer to film studies based on the ideas of Saussure, Lacan, Althusser, and / or Barthes.

Nevertheless, Freud's theory of the unconscious was substantially transformed by some of his followers, among them Carl Jung and Jacques Lacan.

Feminist theory of psychoanalysis, articulated mainly by Julia Kristeva ( the " semiotic " and " abjection ") and Bracha Ettinger ( the feminine-prematernal-maternal matrixial Eros of borderlinking and com-passion, " matrixial trans-subjectivity " and the " primal mother-phantasies "), and informed both by Freud, Lacan and the Object relations theory, is very influential in gender studies.

Psychoanalytical film theory is a school of academic film criticism that developed in the 1970s and ' 80s, is closely allied with critical theory, and that analyzes films from the perspective of psychoanalysis, generally the works of Jacques Lacan.

Though sometimes disparaged as a case of " physics envy " or accused of introducing false rigor into a discipline that is more literary theory than hard science, there is also something of a sense of humor in Lacan's formulas: of one ' sigla which I have introduced in the form of an algorithm ', Lacan himself has declared that ' it is created to allow for a hundred and one different readings, a multiplicity that is admissible as long as the spoken remains caught in its algebra '.

The mirror stage is a concept in the psychoanalytic theory of Jacques Lacan.

Initially, Lacan proposed that the mirror stage was part of an infant's development from 6 to 18 months, as outlined in his first and only official contribution to larger psychoanalytic theory at the Fourteenth International Psychoanalytical Congress at Marienbad in 1936.

The book includes long extracts from the works of Jacques Lacan, Julia Kristeva, Paul Virilio, Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari, Luce Irigaray, Bruno Latour, and Jean Baudrillard who are considered by some to be leading academics of Continental philosophy, critical theory, psychoanalysis or social sciences.

Her article was one of the first major essays that helped shift the orientation of film theory towards a psychoanalytic framework, influenced by the theories of Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan.

In his introduction to the 1994 edition of Jacques Lacan's The Four Fundamental Concepts of Psychoanalysis, David Macey states that " Salvador Dali's theory of ' paranoic knowledge ' is certainly of great relevance to the young Lacan.

Also Jacques Lacan took Bolk's fetalization theory into account in order to introduce his own thesis on the mirror stage.

* Four discourses, a theory by the French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan

It is not a single coherent theory, but rather refers to the combined works of any number of post-structuralists such as Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Lacan ; postmodern feminists such as Judith Butler ; and post-Marxists such as Ernesto Laclau, Chantal Mouffe, Jacques Rancière ; with those of the classical anarchists, with particular concentration on Emma Goldman, Max Stirner, and Friedrich Nietzsche.

However, Lacanian scholars have noted that Lacan himself was not interested in literary criticism per se, but in how literature might illustrate a psychoanalytic method or concept.

His ideas on the relationship of Ego and Alter were developed by Pierre Janet ; while his stress on how " My sense of self grows by imitation of you ... an imitative creation " contributed to the mirror stage of Jacques Lacan.

Lacan stressed the role of the signifier in repression-' the primal repressed is a signifier ' - examining how the symptom is ' constituted on the basis of primal repression, of the fall, of the Unterdrückung, of the binary signifier ... the necessary fall of this first signifier '.

Lacan also drew on the way ' Melanie Klein pushes back the limits within which we can see the subjective function of identification operate ', in her work on phantasy-something extended by her followers to the analysis of how ' we are all prone to be drawn into social phantasy systems ... the experience of being in a particular set of human collectivities '.

For Lacan, ' The traversing of fantasy involves the subject's assumption of a new position with respect to the Other as language and the Other as desire ... a utopian moment beyond neurosis '.

Lacan postulated that the human psyche is determined by structures of language and that the linguistic structures of Hamlet shed light on human desire.

Lacan consistently linked desire and the letter: ' The function of desire is a last residuum of the effect of the signifier in the subject '.

Lacan came to believe that ' the phantasy is never anything more than the screen that conceals something quite primary, something determinate in the function of repetition '.

Lacan () is surname of:

Jacques Lacan, inspired by Heidegger and Saussure, built on Freud's psychoanalytic model of the subject, in which the " split subject " is constituted by a double bind: alienated from jouissance when he or she leaves the Real, enters into the Imaginary ( during the mirror stage ), and separates from the Other when he or she comes into the realm of language, difference, and demand in the Symbolic or the Name of the Father.

Writers whose work is often characterised as post-structuralist include Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Judith Butler, Jaques Lacan and Julia Kristeva.

Lacan considered insults a primary form of social interaction, central to the imaginary order-' a situation that is symbolised in the " Yah-boo, so are you " of the transitivist quarrel, the original form of aggressive communication '.

Lacan clarified the point by stressing that this was " a highly significant moment in the transfer of powers from the subject to the Other, what I call the Capital Other ... the field of the Other-which, strictly speaking, is the Oedipus complex ".

Lacan similarly saw ideas of reference as linked to ' the unbalancing of the relation to the capital Other and the radical anomaly that it involves, qualified, improperly, but not without some approximation to the truth, in old clinical medecine, as partial delusion ' - the ' big other, that is, the other of language, the Names-of-the-Father, signifiers or words ', in short, the realm of the superego.

The matheme ( from " lesson ") is a concept introduced in the work of the 20th century French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan.

" It should be noted, however, that Tallis is not a credible psychoanalyst and most of his critique of Lacan is based off of a gossip book written by Elisabeth Roudinesco entitled " Lacan & Co ." Lacan's mirror stage is based on his belief that infants recognize themselves in a mirror ( literal ) or other symbolic contraption which induces apperception ( the turning of oneself into an object that can be viewed by the child from outside of himself ) from the age of about six months.

This contrast, Lacan hypothesized, is first felt by the infant as a rivalry with its own image, because the wholeness of the image threatens it with fragmentation ; thus the mirror stage gives rise to an aggressive tension between the subject and the image.

( Evans, 1996 ) The moment of identification is to Lacan a moment of jubilation since it leads to an imaginary sense of mastery.

Lacan engaged from early on with ' the phantasies revealed by Melanie Klein ... the imago of the mother ... this shadow of the bad internal objects ' - with the Imaginary.

He trained under ( and was analysed by ) the psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan in the early 1950s.

In the first half of the 20th century, when psychoanalysis was at the height of its influence, its concepts were applied to Hamlet, notably by Sigmund Freud, Ernest Jones, and Jacques Lacan, and these studies influenced theatrical productions.

Psychoanalysis has expanded, been criticized and developed in different directions, mostly by some of Freud's former students, such as Alfred Adler and Carl Gustav Jung, Wilhelm Reich and later by neo-Freudians such as Erich Fromm, Karen Horney, Harry Stack Sullivan and Jacques Lacan.

It was greatly influenced by the writings of Søren Kierkegaard and Friedrich Nietzsche in the 19th century and other early-to-mid 20th-century philosophers, including phenomenologists Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger, psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan, structuralist Roland Barthes, and the language / logic philosopher, Ludwig Wittgenstein.

It was during the height of interest in structuralism in 1966, and Foucault was quickly grouped with scholars such as Jacques Lacan, Claude Lévi-Strauss, and Roland Barthes as the newest, latest wave of thinkers set to topple the existentialism popularized by Jean-Paul Sartre.

* Physician Raymond Tallis describes the psychoanalytic school established by Jacques Lacan as an example of cargo cult science.

Fanon was influenced by a variety of thinkers and intellectual movements including Jean-Paul Sartre, Lacan, Négritude and Marxism.

The story was used by the French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan and the philosopher Jacques Derrida to present opposing interpretations: Lacan's structuralist, Derrida's mystical, depending on deconstructive chance.

According to Yorke, the album's title was not a reference to Kid A in Alphabet Land, a trading card set written by Carl Steadman dealing with the work of psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan.

" At least part of the negative academic reception to Sexual Personae can be attributed to Paglia's ignoring such prominent structuralist / post-structuralist thinkers as Althusser, Derrida, Foucault and Lacan, knowledge of whom had become de rigueur in the academic humanities by the book's 1990 publication.

Theorists like Deleuze counter Freud and Jacques Lacan by attempting to return to a more naturalistic philosophy:

" Matheme ", for Lacan, was not simply the imitation of science by philosophy, but the ideal of a perfect means for the integral transmission of knowledge.

It published work by Walter Benjamin, Jacques Lacan, El Lissitsky, Hans Magnus Enzensberger, Herbert Marcuse, Theodor Adorno, Antonio Gramsci, and Louis Althusser, and interviewed Jean-Paul Sartre, Georg Lukács, and Lucio Colletti.
