The Ethics Of Psychoanalysis 1959 1960 by Jacques Lacan
The Seminar of Jacques Lacan, Book VII
This seminal work explores the intricate relationship between ethics and psychoanalysis, delving into the moral dimensions of human desire and the unconscious. Through a series of lectures, the text examines how psychoanalytic theory intersects with philosophical concepts, particularly those of Kant and Aristotle, to address the ethical implications of human behavior and the pursuit of happiness. The narrative challenges traditional moral frameworks by proposing that true ethical action arises from acknowledging and confronting one's desires, rather than conforming to societal norms or ideals. It offers a profound reflection on the nature of human subjectivity and the ethical responsibilities inherent in the psychoanalytic process.
