The aim of this paper is to demonstrate an aspect of a radically new subject depicted in Lacan¡¯s 23rd seminar of Joyce. In this seminar, Lacan explains the way to repair the borromean knot which lacks the Symbolic dimension due to the foreclosure of the name of the father. Lacan offers the case of Joyce whose writing becomes the fourth knot that holds the other three knots together and makes the borromean knot function. Lacan refers to this writing as ¡®the sinthome¡¯. The sinthome is a writing of the ego that creates a new Imaginary and a new Symbolic. It is of course a part of the Real since its coming into being is triggered by the very failure of the Symbolic function. Lacan has explored the case of Paul Schreber in his 3rd seminar and explained what happens when the Symbolic does not function properly. In the example of Joyce however this does not happen, but instead he invents a new Symbolic with his sinthome. The paper explains how Lacan demonstrates the process of repairing the chain and how Joyce goes on living his life successfully creating the new Symbolic. The case of Joyce as such offers a radically new aspect of the subject. The paper reads Žižek¡¯s work, The Ticklish Subject in particular, in this respect and shows that the latter lacks the central theme of subjectivity discussed in Lacan¡¯s Seminar 23. It also attempts to oppose to the view mentioned earlier in the paper that the psychoanalytic subject can never escape the Symbolic since it cannot help but aiming at the individual¡¯s adapting themselves to the current Symbolic world. The paper has instead argued that the goal of psychoanalysis is not the universal adaptation of the individual to the Symbolic but the very singularity of each individual as demonstrated in Lacan¡¯s 23rd seminar as regards the case of James Joyce.
