==Sigmund Freud==
[[Freud]] has often been accused of a [[chance|crude determinism]], since no [[slip]] or blunder, no matter how apparently insignificant, is ever ascribed to [[chance]].
==Jacques Lacan==
[[Lacan]] expresses the same [[belief]] in his own [[terms]]: [[chance]], in the [[sense]] of pure [[time|contingency]], only [[exists]] in the [[real]].
In the [[Chancesymbolic]], in the sense of pure [[contingencyorder]], only there is no such [[existsthing]] in the as pure [[realchance]].
==''Automaton'' and ''Tyche''==In the [[symbolicseminar]] of 1964, [[Lacan]] uses [[Aristotle]] 's [[orderdistinction]], there is no such thing as pure between two kinds of [[chance]] to illustrate this distinction between the [[real]] and the [[symbolic]].
He distinguishes between two types of [[chance]]: * ''[[automaton]]'', which refers to chance events in the [[world ]] at large, and * ''[[tyche]]'', which designates [[chance]] insofar as it affects agents who are capable of [[ethics|moral ]] [[action]].---
==Symbolic==
[[Lacan]] redefines ''[[automaton]]'' as "the network of [[signifiers]]", thus locating it in the [[symbolic order]].
The term thus comes to designate those phenomena which seem to be [[Lacanchance]] redefines but which are in [[automatontruth]] as "the network [[repetition|insistence]] of signifiers", thus locating it the [[signifier]] in determining the [[symbolic ordersubject]].
==Real==The [[Automatonreal]] is not truly arbitrary: only the aligned with ''[[realtyche]] is truly arbitrary'', since which [[Lacan]] redefines as "the [[encounter]] with the real is beyond the automaton."<ref>{{S11}} p.59</ref>
The [[Tychetrauma]] thus refers to the incursion of the tic [[realevent]] into the [[symbolic]] [[order]]: unlike the ''[[automaton]]'', which is the [[structure]] of the [[symbolic]] order which determines encounter with the [[subjectreal]], ''[[tyche]]'' is purely arbitrary, beyond the determinations of the [[symbolic]] extrinsic to [[ordersignification]].
