At the Rome Congress of Romance Language Psychoanalysts, on the [[{{Y}}|26th of September, 1953]], [[Lacan]] delivered a paper entitled "[[Fonction et champ de la parole et du langage en psychana­lyse]]" ("[[The function and field of speech and language in psychoanalysis]]").<ref>"[[The Function and Field of Speech and Language in Psychoanalysis|Fonction et champ de la parole et du langage en psychana­lyse]]." ''[[Écrits]]''. Paris: Seuil, 1966: 237-322 ["[[The Function and Field of Speech and Language in Psychoanalysis]]." Trans. [[Alan Sheridan]]. ''[[Écrits: A Selection]]''. London: Tavistock, 1977; New York: W.W. Nortion & Co., 1977: 30-113].</ref> This paper, often referred to as the [[Rome Discourse]] marked [[Lacan]]'s break with the analytic establishment and the [[formation]] of his own [[school]] of [[psychoanalytic theory|psychoanalytic thought]]. Also in 1953, [[Lacan]] and a group of colleagues left the '''''[[Société psychanalytique de Paris]]''''' ([[SPP]]) to form the '''''[[Société Française de Psychanalyse]]''''' ([[SFP]]). The [[The Function and Field of Speech and Language in Psychoanalysis|Rome Discourse]] came to be seen as the founding document of the [[SFP]], and of a new direction in [[psychoanalysis]].

==Language==The paper, the founding statement of Lacanian theory, defines [[The Function psychoanalysis]] as a practice of [[speech]] and Field a theory of Speech and Language the [[speech|speaking]] [[subject]]. [[Psychoanalysis]], he asserts, is distinguished from other disciplines in Psychoanalysis|Rome Discoursethat the [[analyst]] works on the [[subject]]'s [[speech]]. He points out that [[Freud]] came often referred to be seen as the founding document of [[language]], particularly when he was focusing on the [[SFPunconscious]]. After all, and of a new direction in [[psychoanalysislanguage]] is the "[[talking cure]]".

===Three Orders===The papertheory of the three interacting orders, the [[Symbolic]], the founding statement of Lacanian theory[[Imaginary]] and the [[Real]], defines psychoanalysis first appears in detail in this paper. These orders can be conceived as a practice different planes of speech and a theory of the speaking subjectexistence which, though interconnected, are independent realities, each [[order]] being concerned with different functions.

=====SummaryImaginary=====The [[Imaginary]] [[order]] includes the field of [[phantasies]] and [[image]]s. It evolves out of the [[mirror stage]] but extends into the adult [[subject]]'s relationships with others. The prototype of the typical imaginary relationship is the infant before the [[mirror]], fascinated with its [[image]]. The [[Imaginary]] [[order]] also seems to include preverbal structures, for example, the various 'primitive' phantasies of children, psycotic and perverse patients.
