In this text the author attempts to sketch one version of the confrontation between post-Husserlian phenomenology and psychoanalytical theory, namely Lacan's reading of Merleau-Ponty's posthumously published work 'The Visible and the Invisible', presented in Seminar XI (Four Basic Concepts of Psychoanalysis). Just as Merleau-Ponty creatively appropriated, certain insights of psychoanalysis and, by their means, reformulated some of the solutions offered by phenomenologically-oriented philosophy, so Lacan exploits the thinking of the late Merleau-Ponty in order to enrich, in a special way, his own version of psychoanalysis - specifically, the development of his theory of the object a which, in the seminar in question, is interpreted as the gaze. In conclusion, some perspectives which this theory of Lacan's opens up in the area of aesthetics are adumbrated.

The paper is an attempt of critical interpretation of Pascal Quignard's works with special attention paid to the context of Lacan's theory that seems to be a basis for its understanding. It brings a review of main features of Quignard's writing. It gives a description of its molten form that makes his texts 'immune', resistent to critic understood also as an interpretation while music plays here a key role in giving one, coherent form to these writings. Quignard's books are empowered by its form and numerous links to ancient texts. They create and describe some specific ontological category 'between-being-and-not-being' which interacts in dialogue with notions of Lacan's psychoanalysis. This paper is an attempt to interpret this category. It is a form of a dialogue with unusual phenomenon of Pascal Quignard's works. It is written in its own language but - as Bakhtin described it - reflecting in it the language of the dialogue's partner.

The present paper is an interpretation of incarnations of the Orpheus and Euridice myth using Lacan's theory. By referring to operatic embodiments of the myth (in Monteverdi, Gluck, and, at a later date, Offenbach), the author considers the change in how the role of woman is seen, as a muse and 'midwife' of a male's talent. He shows the changing concepts of Euridice's gesture: she gives Orpheus back his talent through her death. Lastly, by tracing the diversified ideas of composers with regards to how the Orpheus's part is to be performed (varied voice ranges, from female soprano to male tenor), the author puts forward a thesis that casting female singers in both parts, i.e. as Orpheus and Euridice, and thereby, giving their relationship lesbian traits, would contribute to emphasising the myth's hidden meanings.

This article aims at the question how to identify with values after the postmodern criticism undermining the very roots of the relationship to them. The point is that postmodern thinking usually conceives a desire for values (including the constitutive European values, as truth, good, justice and so on) as a kind of a trap setting by a power discourse. The desire we can interpret as Platonic Eros becomes an instrument of an enchainment. The question, however, is how to account for a lacking being an impulse to the desire. An Deleuzian conception of the lacking from Anti-Oidipus is outlined to be exposed the lacking as a secondary effect of an 'order of representation'. The alternative account for the lacking is possible to find as we address to Lacan and Zizek. The lacking and the desire are bound up with the symbolic order which requires an act repression, as 'meconnaissance' or 'symbolic castration' but at the same time produces a new kind of desire. The values belongs to the symbolic order working due to a phantasmic supplement making up a constitutive exception. The symbolical order appears as Law generating its transgression. This is an obstacle to the full identification with the symbolical order and values as well. According to Zizek's account, Christianity provides us with a manner how to suspend the obstacle. It's a love (agape) subverting the vicious circle of Law. Thus, Eros is found on Agape.

Historical studies of Mao Tse-tung and Maoism are mostly damning moralisations. As for Mao’s influence in philosophy, such studies are rare if not completely non-existent. By conducting a brief genealogy of Lacano-Maoism, a hybrid of Lacanian psychoanalysis and Maoist politics which emerged post-May 68 in France and whose adherents still include Alain Badiou and Slavoj Žižek, this article considers the extent to which this fusion of Mao and Lacan may still have implications for contemporary philosophy and related theoretical discourses. The article speculates on Mao, not as a historical figure, but as a “master signifier” in French theory of the 1960s and 1970s.
