Jack Lacan was the greatest French psychologist of the 20th century.
In addition to that he grew up to be something that has a somewhat strange touch, as he was a famous thinker.
Jack Lacan was blindfolded and rumored about the pop stars.
He went out with the famous artists and writers, he also had a wonderful poetry and attracted beautiful women.
Jacques-Marie Emile Lacan was born in Paris in 1901.
His father was a successful businessman, and his name was soaring in the soap industry.
His mother was a pious Catholic.
His older brother was a Benedictine monk
But Lacan stopped believing in God at a young age.
He became obsessed with philosophy and mathematics
At the age of 15, Lacan commented pages of the book of ethics of Spinoza on the walls of his room.
At university he studied medicine and then specialized in psychology.
Lacan wrote many articles and published the texts of the seminars and seminars he was giving.
He liked to present his ideas in complex ways, so that he formulated them in the form of mathematical equations and graphs.
He did not write very clearly, but under this complex surface Lacan made many important contributions that helped us better understand ourselves.
1. Identity Lacan was deeply interested in something that happened to every child during his life
This is the first moment the child recognizes himself in the mirror.
This moment gives the children a very distinctive experience and a peak in strangeness that can never get a dog or a chicken.
That moment when they look at the reflection of their image in women and begin to think, “This is me!”
Decisively, that moment called Lacan (the mirror phase) can be worrying.
Because the face in the woman is not necessarily similar to what we feel.
Internally we are a constant stream of consciousness that does not have a certain form. Consciousness is made of ideas and wishes and images accelerated.
At home we have multiple sexual tendencies, anarchists, in a state of constant change, paradoxical to the core.
But outside, we seem almost stable. Composed of quiet, consistent features that barely reveal anything that goes on inside.
We have words only to overcome this gap between our internal and external worlds. Most of the time these words fail to express what we really intend.
Not knowing how to express what you feel is not a personal failure – it is an existential reality
The picture in the mirror – necessarily – represents only one dimension of being inside and seeing this external image.
This leads us to a problem that accompanies us throughout our lives.
As adults, we long to be understood by others in the deepest ways.
But Lacan prepares us to face the worst possibility which is in fact the other people will always be stuck in our external appearance,
They will think that we are what we seem to be, but in reality they are making fun of our inner selves with this imagination without realizing it.
It is natural that we reject this view, which leaves us feeling the loneliness caused by our lack of understanding by others, so we are very interested in choosing our external appearance through which others will see us.
This is what the fashion industry is living on. We hope that if we were able to modify our external appearance time after time, maybe the story of our hair or the design of the ring
Will eventually make us well understood
But Lacan suggests a more difficult and mature alternative to solving this dilemma: to accept the idea that others will never be able to understand and feel us in the same way we do internally.
We will often be misunderstood, and we will also misunderstand others.
2 – Love Lacan was famous for his negative statements to the extreme with regard to romantic love.
There is no such thing as sexual relations.
There is no such thing as a man or woman
Men do not know anything about women and women do not know anything about men
Lacan was trying to reach a central reality with being not famous for romantic relationships.
Is that we really can not understand our loved ones to a great extent, and that what we do is that we are simply based on the fantasies we draw from our experiences and experiences during childhood and try to embody them in a lovable form.
It’s a dark idea, but it’s somehow liberated.
This view invites us not to be angry or sad when we do not feel that we are not in a perfect relationship with the person we thought was the twin soul at first.
This understanding recommends that we do not rush to search for another partner (ideal), if we feel that we are imperfectly understood by the current partner.
The link that we worry that we have lost with our current partner is in fact something we did not already have.
Our relationship did not fail because of crap, error or bad luck. It only follows the natural path of love, which ends in our deceptive nature.
With Lacan’s help we can have a more accurate picture of what is normal. .
We will always be somewhat lonely.
This is the basis on which we can build more mature and less frustrating relationships.
3. Politics Lacan was very active in intellectual life in the late 1960s.
This was an exciting time full of social changes.
There was a sexual revolution, a great deal of communism, and a lot of demonstrations.
Lacan’s friends were very enthusiastic.
Lacan felt sympathy for these moves. After witnessing an increase in the number of students demonstrators, he said to them:
(What you are looking for as a new master is a new master and you will get one).
Lacan suggested that while we think of ourselves as democrats, most of us are remarkably interested in research and then worship the symbols of power that will prepare us with bliss.
We want someone else to take responsibility. Someone who can make everything go well. .
Someone is closest to being the ideal father.
As we indulge in politics, we bring these strange ideas from our mental fantasies and drop them on our choices.
For the sake of success, a successful politician can not stir up the masses and ignite their half-unconscious childish dreams of perfection.
But it is he who dares to be an adult adult
He has the skill to convince people that truth can sometimes be disappointing.
Someone who has the skill to do so without arousing tantrums within them. .
Lacan never stopped trying to deliver a difficult reality.
It is how we are strange, immature, lonely beings.
Because we refuse to admit it, and we do not devote enough time to absorb this bitterness. We will end up being much more miserable than we can be if we confess and we are subjected to these realities.
Lacan has always examined new unconventional methods in an effort to make psychoanalysis take on a greater role in our lives.
In psychoanalysis, he saw the natural place of conflict with the mysteries of being a human being.
He did not like to call his clients “sick” because he did not want them to feel sick or unnatural.
The only qualification to come for psychoanalysis is to be human.
Lacan did not mind short sessions, sometimes only 5 minutes, if the person deemed fit for him.
So that the barber and the foot doctor were allowed to visit him during the resurrection sessions of the psychoanalysis of his clients.
He did not do so as a provocation but wanted to discover the prospects he could reach in the event of an atmosphere that guaranteed the greatest degree of relaxation and tranquility.
This may allow him to reach as many people as possible
Lacan was not afraid to integrate intellectual facts with everyday worldly affairs. He believed that influencing politicians, artists and the general public was just as important as educating philosophers or psychologists.
Lacan continued to lecture all over the world until he passed away at the age of eighty.
Although an atheist, Lacan has sometimes spoken of his wish to receive a large Catholic funeral
In Rome or Venice. But that did not happen.
He was buried quietly near his rural home in the village of Gitancourt, northeast of Paris
The ICANN had great ambitions for psychoanalysis
He hoped that his ideas could change large organized groups such as the Catholic Church or the Communist Party,
And free them from their mistakes.
Lacan believed that in the future, psychoanalysis would become a commonplace thing. And that it will be shaped in the way people think in their daily lives and become an integral part of them.
This is an important project, and we are working on it so far.
