A Lacanian Reading of the Poem of “On Chilliness Inside” by Ahmad Shamloo

Abstract

Lacan links psychoanalysis and linguistic to explain the unconscious manner, using the theories of Freud and Ferdinand de Saussure. According to Lacan’s view .the unconscious manner, is the basic of the existence and it forms from childhood. The subject” or the Child, enters to “The symbolic order”, after crossing “The imaginary order”. In “The symbolic order”, “The subject” experiences the “Lack” of union of the mother. “The subject” tries to return to childhood and the first companion form, but in “The symbolic order” it is not possible, as the establishment of the language and its domination on the child dictates such a behavior. There for “the subject” by appealing to “The object petite” like “Love” and “beloved” tries to approach to “the imaginary order”. This article first inspects Lacan’s verbal unconscious theory about “The subject”, then how this theory will become the concept of the poem of Ahmad Shamloo," On Chilliness Inside”.
