ABSTRACT

Badiou Alain would like to eradicate psychoanalysis from his knowledge. Alain would like to eradicate psychoanalysis from his knowledge. Perhaps it means he breaks free of his debt to J. Lacan, just as Freud's book of dreams was the beginning of the dissolution of his tie to Fliess, which ended in his failing to give him credit for the theory of bisexuality. One could say that is all that psychoanalysis does—it gets things moving. It is around these figures that it begins to highlight the subject; figures which no doubt condense with the analyst him or herself on whom its final act will turn. In Lacan's theory of discourse there is the quarter turn between the hysteric and the analyst, and the author don't think it is possible without a deep love and respect for the unconscious.
