perfect neurosis, end of analysis, Borromean knot, exceptionalityAbstract
This article investigates the possibility of singular structural positions, that determine an economy of enjoyment and desire different from the usual phantasmatic one of neuroses or of an end of analysis itself. Starting from the nomination made by Lacan about himself, calling himself a “perfect hysteric”, we consider the possibility of the existence that the exceptionality of certain neuroses can be conceptually apprehended.
