Abstract
Lacan’s question of writing poses several problems. Firstly, because Lacan poses it in a negative mode, or rather in the mode of denial. In a way, this position could be interpreted as a modern position: that of the author without work, who refuses the Sartrean position of the «great man», and for whom writing has something to do with decay.
