Thank you.$ $Why We Need an Ethics of Love (w/ Dr Grace Tarpey) Lacan first defines love in terms of a narcissistic image that forms the substance of the ego ideal — from which the subject wishes to see himself in a desirable way. In romantic love, the other is placed in the position of the ideal ego. The other is loved because of a desire to attain perfection for the ego. For the later Lacan, however, true love goes beyond the ideal to the real. Beyond the narcissistic relationship towards the love object Lacan later in his work shows that we need to encounter the real, the traumatic object in the subject. Thus, true love aims at the kernel of the real. And this is accomplished in psychoanalysis. - Dr Grace Tarpey Watch the full conversation here: https://youtu.be/xP_xCDFyGu0 {Podcast} Substack: https://rsampod.substack.com/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4ryEqjut4r6SMtfxLdM1Le Anchor: https://anchor.fm/rahul-samaranayake {Website} https://rahulsam.me/ {Social Media} https://twitter.com/trsam97 https://www.instagram.com/name_is_rahul/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/rahul-samaranayake-981a9315b/ {Images & Videos used} Thumbnail: The Jewish Bride by Rembrandt (c. 1665–1669) If the ideas I discuss in this channel evoke your interest, consider visiting https://theunhappyman.substack.com/ Copyright Disclaimer under section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for “fair use” for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, education and research.
