Richard Boothby / Is Nothing Sacred? Toward a Lacanian Theory of Religion

Richard Boothby / Is Nothing Sacred? Toward a Lacanian Theory of Religion Lacan devoted the first half of his 7th seminar to an intensive and deeply suggestive return to Freud’s notion of das Ding, the specter of the unknown in the Other and in the subject itself. Yet despite his obvious enthusiasm for the idea, it vanishes from the second half of the seminar and reappears only rarely in Lacan’s seminars over the following years. In this lecture I will try to follow up on Lacan’s suggestion that das Ding might be particularly relevant to understanding what is at stake in religious experience. The result is a new theory of the sacred. This talk is part of To Be Continued?... Philosophy and Psychoanalysis Today. Part III, organised by Tadej Troha and Lorenzo Chiesa. The event is a collaboration between ZRC SAZU (Institute of Philosophy) and Newcastle University (School X). For the full programme, abstracts, and more information, visit: https://tbc-zrc.cargo.site
