Remarques cursives sur le séminaire « La topologie et le temps » de Jacques Lacan
Brief remarks on the seminar “Topology and time” by Jacques Lacan

Summary/Abstract: With this last seminar, one could say that the tempo was quite different, and for many, it was the obvious sign of the illness that would take him. I would also highlight a change in style. Indeed, one might think that he was addressing only a select few, privileged listeners who were particularly knowledgeable in the field of topology. Only the lesson on January 9 briefly recaptures the style of the past. It even seems for a moment that he strays from knot theory! But is that really the case? Upon carefully reviewing the transcription of this seminar, I am rather surprised to find that his speech, despite the breaks, the silences, and the confusion, is actually quite coherent.
