You know what I love about these video commentaries on Seminar III? The frozen frames that YouTube has assigned to each recording. Seriously, just take a look at those below. If you’ve seen our lectures on anxiety, you know where I’m going with this: #showmeyour(-φ).
As for the commentaries themselves, this batch picks up where the others left off, focusing on Chapters 3 and 4 of The Psychoses. And much like their predecessors, they serve a wider purpose — namely, laying out the foundational concepts atop which Lacan develops his theory of psychosis.
Here they are, in all their (-φ) glory — and stay tuned for more next week!
