Abstract:
© BEIESP. The article deals with the study of the problem of The Other” in the context of its influence on the formation and formation of The I”. The methodological basis of the study is existentialism and psychoanalysis. The paper outlines the transition from the traditional understanding of the relationship The I” - The Other” to non-classical - The Other” - The I”. The paper considers the conditions for constructing the theory of the existence of The Other” by J.-P Sartre, as well as the symbolic theory of The Other” by J. Lacan. The conclusions about the essence of the phenomena of The I” and The Other” are drawn based on the conceptual analysis. The I” is defined as a field of absence, deprivation in an individual. The Other” is defined as the Symbolic and the ontological facet of the social. The ambivalent process of interaction between The Other” and The I” is also presented. The I” does not exist initially and a priori but it is formed in the process of filling the lack and void with the symbols of The Other”. The means is the desire which, by splitting an individual, allows him to perceive and realize his being as self. The article shows that this splitting is dual: On the one hand, the I denies the existence of the Other within myself (sadistic component), and on the other, the I entirely denies its Self (masochistic component). The impossibility of being completely satisfied and identifying self with the objects of the Other allows the I not to become like the Other and perceive self as a self-independent and independent being.
