Aunt Mille has always told me that I have the soul of a great poet. I am not sure about this, but I love her so much that I do not dare contradict her. The reason I love her so much is that she always gave me and my brothers and sisters lots of sweets when we were little. Now that I am a student, I have my own apartment and sometimes Aunt Mille comes to visit. The other night, while she was sleeping in the next bedroom, I received a visit from another, much less pleasant, lady... Since then, I do not see Aunt Mille in the same way!

In the autumn of 1862, Abraham Lincoln visited the Antietam Battlefield in Sharpsburg, Maryland, USA. Elected as the 16th President of the United States just two years prior, he faced a nation torn apart by the Civil War. The long-simmering dispute over the right to slaves had erupted into open warfare between the North and South. The Union sought to enforce its authority, while the South had withdrawn from the Union.Despite his reluctance to war, Lincoln understood that a democratic republic could not tolerate rebellion. The South's defiance had to be met. Initially, the war's primary aim was not the liberation of slaves. However, after Lincoln's powerful Gettysburg Address in 1863, the purpose of the war became clear. When he invoked the US Declaration of Independence, declaring that all are created equal, regardless of skin colour, it became evident that the President was committed to this principle.World History invites you on a fascinating journey to bygone eras, allowing you to explore the greatest events in history. Take a trip back in time - to the frontlines of World War 2, to the Viking raids, and to the religious rituals of ancient Egypt. World History is for everyone who would like to know more about the exciting and dramatic events of the past.

En quoi le Réel de Lacan permet-il de mieux cerner la spécificité de la pulsion freudienne, par essence morcelée et inapte à se satisfaire ? Le sexuel reste réfractaire au langage, à la parole du sujet, bien que, pourtant, il le conditionne et le divise, à son insu. À le définir comme impossible, donc Réel, Lacan effectue là son apport propre - et le plus original - à la théorie freudienne. C'est l'un des versants de la lecture rigoureuse que Claude Conté donne, dans cet ouvrage, de moments décisifs de l'oeuvre de Lacan, interrogeant aussi bien l'angoisse, la fonction phallique, le narcissisme, le clivage du sujet, que le transfert et le devenir analyste.
