Name of the Father, ‘One’ of the Mother: From Beauvoir to Lacan
With introduction by Penelope Deutscher
by Françoise Collin / RP 178 (Mar/Apr 2013) / Article
To Our Lady of the Pillar in Zaragossa, perched on her column, ‘But there is something more, a puissance beyond the phallus.’
If I take a few aspects of the thought of Jacques Lacan, and investigate their relation to Simone de Beauvoir around one specific point, I have no intention of making him out – …

Žižek's Badiouian Hegel
by Peter Osborne / RP 177 (Jan/Feb 2013) / Article
There are philosophical books, minor classics even, which are widely known and referred to, although no one has actually read them page by page… a nice example of interpassivity, where some figure of the Other is supposed to do the reading for us. Slavoj Žižek1
Allow me to be that figure (for now anyway), …
Figures of interpellation in Althusser and Fanon
by Pierre Macherey / RP 173 (May/Jun 2012) / Article
The text that Althusser published in 1970 under the title ‘Ideology and Ideological State Apparatuses’, where he puts forward the thesis of the individual’s interpellation as subject, is no doubt one of his most innovative, but it is also particularly disconcerting: its exposition, in exploiting a rhetoric that combines ellipses and brute force, winds up …
Friedrich Adolf Kittler, 1943–2011
‘Switch off all apparatuses’
by Gill Partington / RP 172 (Mar/Apr 2012) / Obituary
It is a mark of how far Kittler’s reputation had spread in the English-speaking world that he had acquired his own cutely alliterative epithet: ‘the Derrida of the digital age’. It was probably an inevitable moniker for a figure who brought his own brand of poststructuralist thinking to bear on media technologies, but …
David Macey, 1949-2011
Biographer of the French intellectual Left
by Neil Belton and Peter Osborne / RP 171 (Jan/Feb 2012) / Obituary
David Macey died from complications of lung cancer on 7 October. He embodied the paradox of being a fine public intellectual while remaining an intenselyprivate person. He was one of the best intellectual historians of his generation and added appreciably to scholarly knowledge, yet did his most significant work as a freelance writer …

Jean Oury
The hospital is ill
by Jean Oury, Mauricio Novello and David Reggio / RP 143 (May/Jun 2007) / Interview
David Reggio Binswanger asserted that man was in the situation of psychiatry if psychiatry was within the situation of man. But it seems that this equation has become corrupted. In its current form, psychiatry has become a very complex and deterministic pursuit. At the same time, a moralism has proliferated that has eclipsed its ethic. …

The other within - Rethinking psychoanalysis
by Jean Laplanche, Peter Osborne and John Fletcher / RP 102 (Jul/Aug 2000) / Interview
Jean Laplanche is the most original and philosophically informed psychoanalytic theorist of his day. Setting out from a critical reconstruction of Freudʼs terminology, he has developed a systematic rethinking of psychoanalytic metapsychology under the heading of a ʻgeneral theory of seductionʼ. Still best known in Britain for his early joint work with Pontalis – ʻFantasy …
