DR GABRIEL LOMBARDI'S SEMINAR ON VERSIONS OF THE UNCONSCIOUS IN LACAN

Freud’s discovery and the technique he invented showed us that the unconscious had precise laws of composition and can be deciphered. But, as Freud himself admitted, deciphering has no limit, which renders the psychoanalytic treatment, informed by this notion of the unconscious, interminable. Lacan never stopped looking for what could put an end to the endless deciphering of the unconscious. This led him to go beyond his notion of the objet petit a to the end of analysis via the Real.

What is the Real at stake in Psychoanalysis? More precisely, what is the Real of the impossible to say, the impossible to write of the non-sexual relation, and the unbearable Real of the symptom? What are the implications of Lacan's conception of the unconscious, and can these elaborations make it possible to determine the end of analysis?

Dr Lombardi is a Psychoanalyst Member of the International School of Psychoanalysis of the Lacanian Field. He is a leading figure in psychoanalysis in Argentina where he is a Chair at University of Buenos Aires and Professor of Clinic with Adults, as well as, directing the mental health service at the Clinic. He has practiced psychoanalysis for over 25 years in Argentina and travelled around the world delivering talks and presentations.
