==Roman Jakobson===Linguistic Definition====="[[Roman JakobsonMetalanguage]] includes " is the metalingual function in his list technical [[linguistic]] term for any [[form]] of [[language]] which is used to describe or analyze the functions properties of [[another]] [[language]].<ref>Jakobson, 1960:25</ref>

More generally, any descriptive =====Roman Jakobson=====[[Roman Jakobson]] includes the metalingual function in his [[list]] of the functions of [[language]].<ref>[[discourseRoman Jakobson|Jakobson, Roman]] such as . "Linguistics and poetics," in ''Selected Writings'', vol. II, ''[[literary criticismPoetry]] can be said to function as a of Grammar and Grammar of Poetry'', The [[metalanguageHague]]: Mouton, 1981 [1960]., p.25</ref>

=====Jacques Lacan==========Early Work=====In 1956 [[Jacques Lacan]] reaffirms 's first reference to [[metalanguage]] comes in 1956, when he echoes [[Jakobson]]'s view on the metalingual function of all [[language]]: "all [[language]] implies a [[metalanguage]], its already a [[metalanguage]] of its own register."<ref>{{S3}} p. 226</ref>

However, in 1960, <blockquote>"All [[language]] implies a [[Lacanmetalanguage]] states the opposite, arguing that "no its already a [[metalanguage]] can be spokenof its own [[register]]."<ref>{{ES3}} p.311226</ref></blockquote>

[[Lacan]] rejects =====Later Work=====A few years later, in 1960, he says precisely the very possibility of a metalinguistic dimensionopposite, denies the [[existence]] of any arguing that "no [[metalanguage]]can be spoken."<ref>{{E}} p.311</ref>

=====No "Outside" of Language=====What [[Lacan]] follows appears to mean by this remark is that, since every attempt to fix the [[Heideggersignification|meaning]]'s view of [[language]] as a "house of being" of which it is impossible to step must be done in [[language]], there can be no escape from [[outsidelanguage]], no "outside".<ref>1960</ref>

[[Lacan]] does not deny that there This is a beyond reminiscent of [[languageHeidegger]], but he does argue that this beyond is not of a kind that could finally anchor 's views on the [[meaningimpossibility]]of exiting "the house of language. "

There is no transcendental =====Metalanguage Does Not Exist=====[[signifiedLacan]], no way that rejects the very possibility of a [[languagemetalanguage|metalinguistic dimension]] could "tell , denies the [[truthexistence]] about of any [[truthmetalanguage]]."<ref>{{Ec}} p. 867-8</ref>

==Other [[Lacan]] follows [[Heidegger]]'s view of the Other==The same point is also expressed in the phrase, [[language]] as a "there is no Other house of the Other.[[being]]"<ref>{{E}} pof which it is [[impossible]] to step [[outside]].311</ref>

If =====Meaning Beyond Language=====This also appears similar to the [[Otherstructuralism|structuralist]] theme of ''il n'y a rien hors du texte'' ("there is the [[guaranteenothing]] of outside the coherence of the [[subject]]'s [[discoursetext]]"), then but it is not the same; [[falsityLacan]] does not deny that there is a beyond of this [[guaranteelanguage]] (this beyond is revealed by the fact that the [[guarantorreal]] himself [[lack]]s such ), but he does argue that this beyond is not of a kind that could finally anchor [[guaranteesignification|meaning]].

There is, in other [[words]], no [[transcendental]] [[signified]], no way that [[language]] could "tell the [[truth]] [[about]] truth."<ref>{{Ec}} p. 867-8</ref> =====No Other of the Other=====The same point is also expressed in the phrase:  <blockquote>"There is no [[Other of the Other]]."<ref>{{E}} p. 311</ref></blockquote> If the [[Other]] is the [[guarantee]] of the [[coherence]] of the [[subject]]'s [[discourse]], then the [[falsity]] of this guarantee is revealed by the fact that the [[guarantor]] himself [[lacks]] such a guarantee. =====Transference===Psychoanalytic Treatment==In a [[clinical]] context, this means that there is no [[metalanguage]] of the [[transference]], no point [[outside]] the [[transference]] from which it could be finally [[interpretation|interpreted]] and '"liquidated'."
