Dissolution! The Other is Missing [The Other lacks] : 15th January 1980 : Jacques Lacan

Jacques Lacan describes this as ‘my seminar of the 15^th January’.

The text of this seminar appeared in Le Monde of 26th January 1980, preceded by a letter dated 24^th January 1980.

Translation note :

L’Autre manque may also be translated as ‘The Other lacks’ which seems to me to be a better translation. The other option would be The missing Other’
