Lacan’s Most Important Idea

What is the “Objet a”? In this video I attempt to provide a short and accessible explanation, based on Žižek’s own definition of “loss as its own object”, and using accessible examples. I also try to debunk some of the central misconceptions surrounding Lacan’s object “cause” of desire. You can find my collected lectures and ebook subscription service on patreon. Hope this was helpful, thanks for watching. Julian #philosophy #psychoanalysis #lacan #freud #zizek
