Abstract

The gaze of the realm of the real is difficult to grasp for the subject who has entered the realm of the symbolic, but it is at the same time the presence that gives the subject certainty as the flicker of the impossible real and the presence in the realm of the field that constantly provokes the subject's desire for it. In this desire, the subject actually encounters the desire of the Big Other directly and is manipulated by it, transforming into the driving subject. This paper will analyze the fragmentation of the subject and its body under this provocation of the gaze of the realm of the real, and its reduction to a vacillating signifier exiled from the symbolic order by being oriented towards absolute death.
