Otherness and the Signifier in Analytic Practice

The speaker discusses the concept of otherness and its relation to the signifier in analytic practice, laying the foundations for understanding the subject's connection to 'little a' and its strangeness. They explore the importance of lost objects such as the breast, excrement, voice, and look, which indicate a topological margin and erogenous zone. The chapter also delves into the trace and its effacement, building upon previous concepts.
