In the film, adult males never appear face-to-face. They symbolize the disappearance of innocent childhood and the so-called social rules. Here is a reference to Lacan's Three Realms Theory: From: How to Explain Lacan's Three-Dimensional World in Easy-to-understand Language—— Real, imaginary, symbolic? zhihu.com
They are kinked with each other and act together on the main body from beginning to end, that is, the so-called topology of the three realms. For example, in the second stage of the Oedipus complex, the mother that the child desires is not purely imaginary, the mother has been involved in the symbolic order, and is desired by the child as part of the father's law, and the father at this time is not is the symbolic father, but the imaginary father, because it exerts influence on the child through the imaginary relational mother. So I want to talk about Lacan's relationship of the three realms from the topology of the three realms. Imagination: Freud, in distinguishing the libido of the ego from the libidinal of the libido, proposed that a unified self does not exist from the beginning, it develops. But libido was there from the start. Lacan inherited the theory that the formation of the self arises from libidinal libido out of chaos, when there is a definite form of betting, the first form of betting is narcissism, in which the child recognizes himself in the mirror, and then Put your own erotic libido on yourself. But the image of the "self" in the mirror is not entirely the image of the self, but also includes the influence of others—the mother. From birth the child longs to return to the original state of "One" with the mother, and from the mirror image the child acquires the illusion of "self-fullness" through libidinal betting on the back-and-forth between the self and the mother , the identification with the self-body constitutes the "ideal self" that establishes its own integrity, while the identification with the mother and the libidinal investment constitute the "self-ideal" of the "one". The illusion of the child's own perfection is a product of the imagination, since the mother can never actually return to "oneness" with the child. The mother has long been deprived of the power of the father in the symbolic world. The imaginary world is characterized by a "perfect" lie that conceals the fundamental absence of the mother, but the child does not know it. Symbolic: The moment when the child learns of this absence is the moment when he enters the linguistic order, the example of "Ford/Da" used by Freud to elicit forced repetition is used by Lacan to explain the child's entry into the symbol node of order. When children have to face the absence of their mothers, they begin to use language to replace their missing mothers. At this time, presence and absence are dialectically reversed. "Ford/Da" is the naming of the absent mother and the murder of the mother—— Because the real mother is no longer needed in the future, only the replacement "Ford/Da" of the mother is needed. The child is thus drawn into the trap of the symbolic world, which deceptively transforms the child's desire for the mother into a desire for the symbolic Ferrers. Lacan reversed the positions of signifier and signified in Saussure's linguistics, but basically inherited Saussure's The concept of the signifier, that is, the language sign is a self-contained signification system, and the meaning of the sign does not come from a certain connection between it and the referent, but from the combination of the signifier and the signified within the sign system, which Lacan further cancels. The concept of the signified is dropped, and it is said that the signified is only the operation effect of the signifier chain. Due to the limitation of the subject's position in the signified chain, the signified effect of the signifier is mistaken for the signified. After children enter the language order, they mistakenly regard the language signifier of "Ford/Da" as a sign referring to the mother, but "Ford/Da" does not point to the mother, it is just an accidental signifier in the language structure . In addition, this symbol will also be replaced by various signifier symbols. During the "anal period" of the child, he begins to learn to give up his pursuit of his mother and turn into the order deception of the symbolic world. This deception is the symbolic world. patriarchal discipline. The patriarchy in the symbolic world has already prepared the child for him from the moment he is born, first by invading the mother to make the child imagine that he and the mother are "one", when the child has to lose the mother (which is inevitable). because the state of "one" does not exist at all), the patriarchy once again laid a labyrinth for him in the symbolic realm, tempting him to say that as long as he follows the patriarchal power and gets Fellers, he can "be one with his mother again" ". Reality: But the child will never get the patriarchal Ferrers, the core of the chain of signifiers—the main signifier. Because the main signifier does not exist. Freud mentioned in "Totem and Tabu" that the original father had long been killed, and was replaced by his totem and the patriarchal system formed around it. In Lacan's case, this patriarchal system is The signifier chain of the symbolic world. But when the individual seeks the main signifier, he will, according to some retrospective logic, think that there must be an object that can be merged with the main signifier. Freud pointed out that the meaning of the traumatic scene does not appear when it is primary, but after it becomes a memory trace, which is the delay of the traumatic effect. In Lacan's theory, an object that is one with the main signifier does not exist from the beginning, but the subject infers from the retroactive logic that it "should" exist. Therefore, the subject constantly pursues and searches around the logical chain of the signifier, but the final result must be failure. "Things (das Ding) is a prerequisite for bringing memory and perception into agreement, but also what makes this agreement fail. "This "thing" is what falls into the real world, the motive force behind the motion of the signifier chain, and what all subjects are looking for but does not exist at all. In Lacan's Borromean knot, the symbolic world is the real The intrusion of the world "thing" (the retrospective inference that "there should be a primordial father to be one with the thing") gave rise to the symbolic Ferrers - language and father law. The intrusion of the symbolic world into the imaginary world (via The patriarchalized mother has an effect on the child) produces the imaginary Ferrers—a lie of “oneness” with the mother. And the intersection of the imaginary and the real is the desire of the other that cannot be answered ——(Mother couldn’t answer it) What do you want? The three products after cutting meet again, that is the “object a” that doesn’t exist at all but makes everything revolve around it forcibly repeating.
