From 1952 to 1980 French psychoanalyst and psychiatrist Jacques Lacan gave an annual seminar in Paris. The ''Books'' of the Seminar are edited by Jacques-Alain Miller.〔The complete set of annual seminars is referred to collectively in French as the ''Séminaire'', and the practice of capitalising the "S" of Seminar has been retained in English to denote the full series and thereby distinguish the Parisian series from other ad hoc seminars. Cf. Macey, D. "Introduction" to The Four Fundamental Concepts of Psychoanalysis.〕 == History == In 1951, Lacan, then a member of the Paris Psychoanalytic Society, initiated a series of weekly Wednesday meetings in his apartment on Rue de Lille, Paris. In 1952, the meetings were transferred to the Hôpital Sainte-Anne where Lacan worked as a consultant psychiatrist. ''Book I'' of the seminar〔Lacan, Jacques. ''The Seminar Book I, Freud's Papers on Technique'', Cambridge University Press.〕 is the edited transcription of the 1953-1954 weekly lessons at Sainte-Anne, where the Seminar would be held until 1963. The final seminar to be held at Sainte-Anne is published as ''Book X'' (''Anxiety'', 1962-1963). The single lesson delivered on 20 November 1963 and published as "Introduction to the Names-of-the-Father Seminar"〔Lacan, Jacques. "Introduction to the Names-of-the-Father Seminar". ''Television/A Challenge to the Psychoanalytic Establishment'', pp. 81-95〕 is the introduction to a seminar that was never delivered, and which has thus been dubbed ''The Inexistent Seminar''.〔Miller, Jacques-Alain "The Inexistent Seminar". ''Psychoanalytical Notebooks of the London Society'', issue 15〕 Indeed, the night before this lesson, Lacan had been informed that the SFP "had voted, in a complicated procedure, to refuse to ratify the motion striking Lacan's name from the list of the training analysts",〔Lacan, Jacques. ''Television/A Challenge to the Psychoanalytic Establishment'', p. 81.〕 thus stripping Lacan of the right to continue as a training analyst within the International Psychoanalytical Association. This institutional manoeuvre effectively brought to a close the early period of Lacan's teaching. The middle period of Lacan's teaching began two months later with ''The Four Fundamental Concepts of Psychoanalysis''. Hosted by the École Normale Supérieure, under the patronage of the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences, the Seminar now enjoyed "a much larger audience" and represented a "change of front".〔Lacan, Jacques. "Report on the 1964 Seminar". ''Hurly-Burly'' 5, p. 17.〕 This series of lessons, now edited as ''Book XI'' of the Seminar, opens with the lesson "Excommunication" in which Lacan expands on the circumstances and implications of his exclusion from the IPA. The second lesson, "The Freudian Unconscious and Ours" sets the tone of his ensuing teaching by indicating potential points of discontinuity with respect to Freud's oeuvre. Lacan's yearly Seminar continued at the École normale supérieure until 1969. From autumn 1969 onwards, it was hosted by the Law Faculty at Place du Panthéon.〔Grigg, Russell. "Translator's Note" to The Seminar Book XVII, ''The Other Side of Psychoanalysis'', p. 9.〕 This series of seminars, the late period of Lacan's teaching, opened with ''The Other Side of Psychoanalysis'', now edited as ''Book XVII'' of the Seminar, and continued until the late seventies. As Lacan's teaching moved into the phase known as the ''very late teaching of Lacan'', his declining health led to less regular appointments. Lacan's final public delivery on 12 July 1980, sometimes referred to as "The Caracas Seminar"〔Lacan, Jacques. "Overture to the First International Encounter of the Freudian Field". ''Hurly-Burly'' 6 17-20.〕 was not, as this title indicates, part of the Parisian series. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seminars of Jacques Lacan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
