Resumen de Mystik und jouissance als „ex-sistenter“ Gottesbezug bei Jacques Lacan: Im Vergleich mit der Radikalisierten Phänomenologie als „Lebensmystik“
In view of Freud’s discovery of the unconscious the classical theory of truth as correspondence had to be revised. With regard to such revision Lacan’s linguistic-structuralistic approach has gone one step further by contrasting “psychoanalytical discourse” with other “master discourses”, because “psychoanalytical truth” does not depend on any prior knowledge. Thus, the subject is freed from calls emanating from worldly contexts that tie desire and jouissance to imaginary objects. To the extent that the relation to that which is radically different is mediated through the symbolic dimension of language – and therefore intends a form of speech that is never reducible to that which can be said – the locus of such truth can also be termed as the “ex-isting God”. In the tradition of the mystics, truth appears thereby as possible jouissance, precisely because this tradition cannot be satisfied with any worldly totality. For a comparative approach taking into account Michel Henry’s radicalized phenomenology religio can therefore be thematized as a “mystical approach to life” that transcends the phantasmatic character of individual or social images.
