O presente artigo busca explorar relações entre violência, corpo e imagem na arte contemporânea brasileira a partir de obras que suscitam operações de reapropriação do real. Para isso, propusemos uma articulação entre as produções poéticas de Nuno Ramos e Rosangela Rennó – nomeadamente entre as décadas de 1990 e 2000 – e as contribuições teóricas de Slavoj Žižek e Michel Foucault, cujo caráter não conciliatório opera um tensionamento nos discursos hegemônicos em torno do fenômeno da violência e de suas relações com a visualidade e a corporeidade.Palavras-chave: Violência; Corpo; Imagem; Nuno Ramos; Rosangela. Rennó.Abstract This article aims to investigate the relations between violence, body and image in Brazilian contemporary art based on works that evoke reappropriations from the real. For that, we propose to link the artistic productions of Nuno Ramos and Rosangela Rennó from 1992 and the theoretical works of Slavoj Žižek and Michel Foucault.Keywords: Violence; Body; Image; Nuno Ramos; Rosangela Rennó.

Read through Lacan and such new Lacanians as Slavoj Žižek and Juliet Flower MacCannell, Josephine Hart's Damage (1991) illustrates how an ethics of jouissance founds a tragic action emblematic of postmodern narcissism. New Lacanians stress drive, jouissance, the real, the primordial father, and the femme fatale. Typically, they find these elements in film noir. Transforming noir into love story, Damage foregrounds an unnamed narrator whose sadomasochistic affair with his son's fiancée precipitates the son's death. Beginning with the narrator in the guise of the traditional oedipal father, the affair unveils the fiancée as a femme fatale who constitutes the narrator as what MacCannell would call the destructive, narcissistic brother become primordial father. Enacting an ethics of jouissance because the narrator will not abandon his drive to enjoyment beyond the pleasure principle, primordial father and femme fatale participate in a narrative that must be called Lacanian tragedy.

Derechos Humanos

Este trabajo pretende analizar el papel jugado por la ideología en lo que respecta al despliegue histórico de los derechos humanos, interrogándose sobre si dicho despliegue ha cumplido con una función eminentemente ideológica. La reflexión transcurrirá a través de la visión de dos pensadores que han sostenido una de las discusiones filosóficas contemporáneas más interesantes: Louis Althusser y Michel Foucault. En un primer momento, se esbozará la teoría althusseriana de la ideología, con el fin de sostener que los derechos humanos han operado como un “aparato ideológico”, interpelando al individuo desde un contexto inmanentemente capitalista. En un segundo momento, comprobaremos que Michel Foucault fue muy crítico con los planteamientos althusserianos. La noción de sujeto trascendental será crucial en dicha crítica, puesto que en la perspectiva foucaultiana nunca existen sujetos constituidos con anterioridad a las tramas de poder efectivas. En el análisis foucaultiano, la ideología dejará de ocupar un lugar esencial. Las aportaciones de Slavoj Žižek también resultarán, por cierto, determinantes en toda esta discusión. Finalmente, se trazarán algunas reflexiones críticas para pensar la posibilidad emancipadora de los derechos humanos en el mundo contemporáneo.

The Way

This study intends to show how science fiction literature in general and Philip K. Dick’s novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? in particular can be read as a symptom of the postmodern era we live in. Taking as the main clues the ideas of the cultural theorist Slavoj Žižek, who combines Marxism with the psychoanalysis of Jacques Lacan, as well as his account of “postmodernism,” the study discusses how, contrary to what capitalism dubs a “post-ideological” era, we are more than ever dominated by ideology through its cynical function. It further examines (through such Lacanian concepts as fantasy, desire, objet petit a, and jouissance) the way late capitalistic ideology functions in Dick’s narrative, and discusses how the multiculturalist society prompts new forms of racism through abstract universalization which only accounts for and tolerates the other as long as they appear within the confines of that formal abstraction. Finally, it looks into how ideologies as such can be subverted from the Real point within the symbolic.

Full Consideration

Slavoj Žižek introduces definition of subject through the concept of The Real. He decribes it use the Lacan’s psychoanalys triagle. The process of reaching The Real causes the subject to do something that can be out of the symbolic. Therefore, the position of subject could be decided at this stage. This kind of subject is seen in The Help (2011) film. It is represented by Skeeter. She tries to out from the symbolic order to get the real. In her process to reach the real, she is unable to release herself from the symbolic completely because of her educational background, her thought, and her conscience. Therefore, Skeeter could not be defined as the radical subject based on the process. Still, her effort in order to out from the symbolic is never succeeded. It is because she always does everything with full consideration. In fact, she only moves to the new symbolic order.

Paradigma humanis dalam kajian sastra memposisikan manusia sebagai pusat. Penelitian ini mengkaji subjektivitas tokoh dan pengarang dalam semesta novel Lelaki Harimau karya Eka Kurniawan menggunakan teori subjektivitas Slavoj Zizek. Zizek memfokuskan pemikirannya pada tatanan riil dan simbolik dalam kehidupan manusia. Menurutnya, manusia mampu meraih kebebasan dan keotentikan dirinya selama ia bertindak melampaui norma-norma simbolik dan bergerak menuju dimensi riil dalam kehidupannya. Sebaliknya, manusia akan tetap terpenjara dalam dimensi simbolik, selama ia membiarkan dirinya tetap hanyut dalam kesadaran palsu ideologi. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa ada upaya radikal yang dilakukan oleh tokoh utama untuk mencapai kondisi riil melalui tindakan sadis dan tak berkeprimanusiaan yang melanggar aspek normatif dalam lingkaran simbolik. Akan tetapi, peristiwa yang dihadapi oleh tokoh tersebut berlawanan dengan diri pengarang sebagai subjek. Pengarang justru tidak menunjukkan adanya upaya radikal dalam kehidupannya sehingga ia tetap berada dalam fantasi ideologis.Kata Kunci:Subjektivitas, Slavoj Zizek, Eka Kurniawan, Tindakan Radikal, Fantasi ideologis. The humanist paradigm in literature study assigns humans as the center. This research examines the subjectivity of the characters and the author in Lelaki Harimau novel by Eka Kurniawan using Slavoj Zizek's theory of subjectivity. Zizek focused his thoughts on the real and symbolic order in human life. According to him, humans are able to achieve freedom and authenticity as long as they act beyond the symbolic norms and move towards the real dimension in their life. On the contrary, humans will remain imprisoned in a symbolic dimension as long as they allowed themselves drifted away on a false consciousness of ideology. This research indicates that there are radical efforts made by the main characters to achieve the real conditions through sadistic and inhumane actions that violate the normative aspects in a symbolic circle. However, the events faced by these characters are opposite to the author as the subject. In fact, the author does not perform any radical efforts in his life so that he remains in ideological fantasies.Keywords: subjectivity, Slavoj Zizek, Eka Kurniawan, radical act, ideological fantasy

Secular Society

The aim of this article is to provide a systematic presentation of Slavoj Žižek's reflections on belief and hereby to indicate his relevance for a philosophy of religion. The article begins with a brief introduction to Žižek's basic philosophical concern and a theological contextualization of his thinking from the perspective of this concern. This is followed by an exposition of his concept of belief. The starting point of this exposition is Freud's reflections on fetishism and disavowal that form the background for Žižek’s analysis of belief in modern secular society and as structural conditions of the human consciousness. Subsequently, the article presents Žižek's reflections on belief as reflective in terms ‘displaced belief’ in ‘the other who is supposed to believe’. It is demonstrated here how Žižek operates with a distinction between an ‘imaginary’ belief that is structured like the fetishistic disavowal and a ‘symbolic’ unconscious belief in belief as such. The final section of the article sheds light on Žižek's view of atheism and his introduction of a third form of ‘atheistic belief’, while considering whether this kind of belief belongs to the register of the ‘real’. Hensigten med denne artikel er at give en systematisk fremstilling af Slavoj Žižeks overvejelser over tro for herved at tematisere hans religionsfilosofiske relevans. Der indledes med en kort introduktion til Žižeks grundlæggende filosofiske anliggende og en teologisk kontekstualisering af hans tænkning ud fra dette anliggende. Derefter udfoldes fremstillingen af trosbegrebet. Udgangspunktet tages i Freuds betragtninger over fetichisme og fornægtelse, der danner baggrunden for Žižeks analyser af tro i det moderne sekulære samfund og som strukturelt vilkår ved den menneskelige bevidsthed. Derefter præsenteres Žižeks overvejelser over refleksiv tro som ’forskudt tro’ på ’den anden, der formodes at tro’. Det demonstreres her, hvordan Žižek opererer med et skel mellem en ’imaginær’ tro, der er struktureret som den fetichistiske fornægtelse og en ’symbolsk’ forudgående, ubevidst tro på selve det at tro. Til sidst i artiklen belyses Žižeks opfattelse af ateistisme og hans introduktion af en tredje form for ’ateistisk tro’, og det overvejes om denne form for tro kan siges at høre til i det reelles register.

Le rapport entre la théorie du cinéma et la psychanalyse demeure trouble, tant sur le plan conceptuel qu’épistémologique, et ce, depuis les toutes premières études psychanalytiques du cinéma. Ce rapport se trouve complexifié par des avancées distinctes dans les cercles savants francophones et anglophones. Voulant faire le pont entre les réflexions françaises et anglo-saxonnes, cet article se propose de relire les fondements de l’ouvrage Le signifiant imaginaire en articulant les enjeux soulevés par Christian Metz aux relectures lacaniennes offertes par des penseurs contemporains tels que Joan Copjec, Todd McGowan, Elizabeth Cowie et Slavoj Žižek – des penseurs qui prennent acte de certaines lacunes largement présentes dans la théorie des années 1970. Il en ressort une réflexion voulant repenser le régime de signification opérant au cinéma, puisqu’à l’époque de Metz, certains concepts lacaniens (le fantasme, le désir, l’objet a, le Réel) demeuraient absents des discours théoriques en études cinématographiques. Il s’agira donc de redéfinir le désir spectatoriel en l’articulant à une « réelle » pensée lacanienne, le tout afin de resituer la place du signifiant cinématographique en le liant au rôle du fantasme. De nature avant tout programmatique, cet article ne consolidera pas son propos par le biais d’analyses filmiques, mais s’attardera plutôt à des enjeux théoriques afin de plaider pour l’approche mise de l’avant par l’américain Todd McGowan dans l’ouvrage The Real Gaze. Si le fantasme joue un rôle central dans l’articulation du désir spectatoriel, il nous appartiendra de voir comment ce rôle se rapporte au regard, au Réel et au fameux signifiant cinématographique.
