The Return of the Repressed Anticipation and the Logic of the Signifier
p. 293-300
Abstract
In his Ecrits, Lacan discusses the determination of human speech. In his commentary on Poe's 'The purloined letter' he tries to show that the sequence of signifiers is not arbitrary but governed by an internal logic. In 'Subversion du sujet et dialectique du désir' he tries to show how this chain of signifiers is constituted in a double movement : on the one hand there is the linear succession of signifiers, on the other hand there is an anticipatory movement. We would like to combine these two lines of thought and illustrate this double determination with Freud's case study of the Ratman.
