Resumen
Proponemos que acto y gesto relacionan el pensamiento de
Jacques Lacan y Werner Hamacher. Al exponer una particular
dimensión práctica del lenguaje, ambos términos permiten
articular la praxis psicoanalítica, el comprender y la literatura,
tal como estos autores los entienden. Es decir, fundadas en una
falla o un fracaso. Para Hamacher, el fracaso de las intenciones
epistemológicas sobre la lengua es lo que afirma su dimensión
de acontecimiento. Lejanía de sí de la lengua, que es el trasfondo
impensable del comprender. La literatura, como gesto en la lengua,
retoma y a la vez expone ese fracaso, al descubrir y mantener
abierta la lengua en la cesura de su fundamento. Lacan, por su parte, sostendrá que al acto nunca es tan logrado como cuando
es fallido. Si a partir de allí, la praxis psicoanalítica encuentra el
lugar que le corresponde es porque rechaza, como condición,
reubicar a su sujeto al amparo de las formas del conocimiento.
La falla por sí misma no logra nada. Solo expone la dimensión
significante de la equivocación, implicada en la función y el
concepto del inconsciente. En la estructura de la equivocación, el
acto encontrará la hiancia de la ley que lo instaura y determina,
al iluminar la apertura inaugural de la división del sujeto.
We propose that act and gesture relate Jacques Lacan’s and Werner Hamacher’s thought. By exposing a particular practical dimension of language, both terms allow the articulation of psychoanalytical praxis, understanding and literature, as these authors understand them. That is to say, founded on a mistake or a failure. For Hamacher, the failure of epistemological intentions about language, as is what affirms its event dimension: language’s distance from itself, which is the unthinkable background of understanding. Literature, as a gesture in language, takes up and at the same time exposes this failure, by discovering and keeping language open in the caesura of its foundation. Lacan, for his part, will argue that the act is never as successful as when it is failed. If, from there, the psychoanalytic praxis finds the place that corresponds to it, it is because it rejects, as a condition, to relocate its subject under the protection of the forms of knowledge. Failure by itself achieve anything. It only exposes the significant dimension of mistake, implied in the function and concept of the unconscious. In the structure of mistake, the act will find the hiancia of the law that establishes and determines it, by illuminating the inaugural division of the subject.
