Lacan, sobre el estilo

El estilo de Lacan

Abstract

Michel Arrive confronts in this essay a multifaceted problem: that famous analogy between the structure of language and unconscious. Taking as a point of departure Lacan's aphorism on "unconscious structured as a language", the author of this text seeks to unveil the hidden implications of a general question: that of the imprisonment of the subject by the power of language, in other words, the question of style. But the challenge that Arrive has taken on is much more complex: he tries to apply the very same arguments of Lacan's reflection on style particularly around Schreber's case to his own characterization of Lacan's style. Undoubtedly we must understand the expression "Lacan's style" a the laborions who which he did on the materiality of language: that play of homophones and homonyms that yield necessarily to a crash in the chain of significants.
