Abstract

Progressive research tries to apply the theory of the French thinker and psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan to the formation of the subject in the great other according to the work Texts for nothing written by Samuel Beckett. Lacan's subject is dashed, fragmented, fragmented, and the subject of absence, which does not conform to a unified identity. The main question of the present article is to explain the inability of the subject to find the totality integrity of her identity. The main purpose of this article is to examine how the subject is formed in the great other and to explain how the language of the other penetrates into the I. For this reason, we first introduced key concepts such as: the unconscious, the other, the subject of expression and the expressive; Then we analyzed the text by descriptive-analytical method and by sample sampling. The findings show that the great other is present as a language and, by acting, causes the division of the subject, which manifests itself in conscious and unconscious propositions; Also, the "great other" dominates the subject with a chain of linguistic signs that deprive her of the power of speech, and this leads to the narrator of this work appearing in the form of a fragmented narrator and paralyzed, producing an incoherent narrative. In fact, this study can explain the ways in which the subject is represented in relation to the other and how to deal with the category of identity in the text in question.
