Welcome

As you will soon discover this web-site is currently something of a building site.   The final lay-out is planned to be as follows:

A: Translations

1)       Jacques Lacan’s Seminars: nineteen translated from unpublished French manuscripts.  There is no ‘original’ version of these spoken lectures but the texts I have used are more reliable than the official published versions.

2)      Some Ecrits :  ‘The Family’, ‘The Direction of the Treatment’, ‘L’étourdit’, summaries of the seminars , as well as the texts dealing with the structure of the psychoanalytic organisation.

3)      Books by Charles Melman, and final drafts of works by Christian Fierens and Guy Le Gaufey. Various  articles by C Fierens, J-P Le Brun, F Gros, C Melman, E Porge.

B: My own publications

Approximately thirty Papers mostly for psychoanalytic congresses.

*************************************************************************************

The translation of the seminars and other texts owes much to the work of students and colleagues over a period of almost thirty years.   In recent years I would like to pay particular tribute to Cathriona Brownlee, Mary Cheyrou-Lagreze, Tom Dalzell, Dermot Hickey, Jonathan Hughes,Tony Hughes, Patricia McCarthy and Barry ODonnell.   In addition, I would like to thank Tony for taking the website under his wing and Lindy Meldon who transformed thousands of hours of dictaphone recordings into readable scripts.
