A questão do gozo em Lacan e o conceito de carne em Merleau-Ponty

Abstract

One approaches here the epistemological opposition between what Lacan concerns to the concept of supplementary jouissance - it is supplementary to the phallic jouissance - and what Merleau-Ponty called flesh (la chair). Flesh, in this sense, is not related to the subject of unconscious which has no transparency. It regards what Merleau-Ponty called gaze which corresponds to a special way of feeling. (The author calls this sencient gaze). The concept of subject in psychoanalysis concerns the logic of both signifier and non-sense. Its situation is between perception and conscience. Gaze in Merleau-Ponty's points to the joint of perception and conscience. It refers to a sort of aesthesical intelligibility compared here to the intellection of Thruth in Plato and to the question of jouissance in Clarice Lispector's literature. After having distinguished between aesthesical intelligibility and mystical rapture, one interrogates the psychiatric practice that bases psycho (patho) logical knowledge upon a pure eidetic .
