Abstract

The contrast between some lessons in Seminar XXIII of Jacques Lacan with A Portrait of the Artist as a Young
Man by James Joyce, that was one of Lacan's sources, brings about how the work depicts Joyce as a young man, finding the knottings where the foreclosure of the Name of the Father did not allow him to respond and could lead to somedetachments that would trigger his psychosis.Nevertheless, with his work he was graduallybuilding a work that was useful as Sinthome andknotting of his structure.
