Riassunto:Objects are a reversal of the intension and the extensions of functions, allowing us to understand why the intensionality of functions is in no way ontologically predetermined. Indeed, intensionality depends impredicatively on what it is supposed to induce, the deconstruction of which implies a return to the recursivity of an inaugural void. “Un temps logique,” a logical time (possibly reversive itself, as is the case in interlocution), supports the void and constructs spatiality in its materiality and figuration. Space thereby becomes active. The reversive time of speech is a way to exemplify that the unconscious is structured like a language, by means of the signifiers’ organization of any exchange and, more broadly, of the world itself. From Freud to Lacan and beyond, psychoanalysis is based on a single principle freeing yourself from spatiality’s constraints arising from the link between the continuous and the discrete.
