Abstract:
The present work aims to show how Jacques Lacan carried out the reading of Plato's Parmenides in order to develop a logic based on the non-relationship and independent from an ontology. We start from two fundamental references of the Platonic dialogue in the teaching of the psychoanalyst and with the aid of the texts of the linguist Ferdinand de Saussure, psychoanalysts, scholars and thinkers of the same theme, we move to the operator There is Something of the One forged by Lacan. The naming function in the Borromean chain and the non-sexual relationship will be discussed. Two hypotheses of the Platonic dialogue about the unit of the multiple will be examined so that both the relationship and the non-relationship between Being and the One are looked into in terms of the barred subject, the signifier and jouissance.
