ECF - École de la Cause Freudienne – Paris, Bookshop Evening, October 2nd, 2025: “Fragments of Seminar XII.”
Last October 2nd, the Bookshop Cartel — formed by Christelle Sandras, Valérie Bussières, Patricia Loubet, Jean-Noël Donnart and Omaïra Meseguer as Plus-One — organized a new evening event at the ECF headquarters in Paris, following the publication of Seminar XII “Crucial Problems” (1964–1965) by Jacques Lacan, established by Jacques-Alain Miller. The four invited speakers presented selected fragments of the seminar, four major references Lacan uses in his course to account for the fragmentation of the subject’s being, a central point of his teaching.
