GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Spanish term or phrase:
la hiancia del sujeto
English translation:
béance dehiscence/the splitting of the subject against himself
Lacan plantea una vuelta a Freud, manteniendo la relación de lo no realizado, la hiancia que muestra el inconsciente y que los analistas post-freudianos trataron de suturar psicologizando la teoría analítica. Es en la hiancia, en el tropiezo, en las fallas, en la fisura donde Freud halla el inconsciente. Y es en esta hiancia donde Lacan introduce en el dominio de la causa, la ley del significante e indica como lectura el capítulo VII de La interpretación de los sueños, el punto A- El olvido de los sueños, donde Freud se refiere a los juegos del significante a través de una sucesión de ejemplos. Ya había afirmado Lacan que el inconsciente está estructurado como un lenguaje.
La cartografía inconsciente del ser cambia con las épocas
En relación al cuerpo marcado por el sexo se hace presente una hiancia entre lo real del cuerpo y las representaciones del cuerpo que se pueden habitar o que se pretenden habitar para otorgarse una identidad sexual. Esta consideración es efecto de la clínica psicoanalítica y difiere de la diferencia elemental que establece la psicología y la sociología entre naturaleza y cultura, al distinguir el sexo “natural” y los “roles”.

¿What is that truth? It is the truth of an issue that is not property of man, but that concerns the absolute reference to the other: the invaluable object, sex, maybe identified here as a figure of the absolute deficiency, the place of the other in the body. The man is only its depository; he would have only the use of sex; the non-possesion of sex. The second dimension of this truth remits to the hole, the opening, the defect, the deficiency, that, as we saw, it is found in the etymology of this concept: it is the knot of the human being, it is the inaugural nucleus in man. It is essential to make relevant this third dimension of the truth of the sex as material of the abyss: this hole is an abyss without which we can't see why the law should have to do anything with pleasure, I mean, why the man, carrier of absolute, is taken always to that original béance [Note: hiancia in the Spanish original, which was in turn a translation from French made by the Argentinian newspaper].

dehiscence of the subject/the splitting of the subject against himself
as important to note that aggressivity and aggression are not the same. For Lacan, aggression is a derivative of the death drive (Todestrieb) while aggressivity is the acting out of aggression through the symbolic and imaginary orders. Following Freud (1920), aggressivity is both the deflection of self-destruction and a defensive, protective reaction to an external threat. Lacan (1948) shows that aggressivity is immured within the structures of subjectivity "by its very constitution" (p.9), and avouches that "aggressivity in experience is given to us as intended aggression and as an image of corporeal dislocation" (p.10). As we have said, imagos can be noxious and disfiguring, thus leading to fragmentation and a fracturing of the body. The ego attempts to fantasize the illusion of mastery and unity in the face of these dislocated and contrary experiences characteristic of the child's fragmented bodily states which are displaced as aggressivity directed toward others. Richard Boothby (1991) argues that "aggressivity is a drive toward violation of the imaginary form of the body that models the ego. It is because aggressivity represents a will to rebellion against the imago that aggressivity is specifically linked in fantasy to violations of the bodily integrity" (p.39). Thus, for Lacan (1966), "the notion of aggressivity corresponds . . . to the splitting of the subject against himself" (p.344). Such "dehiscence" in the nascent ego gives rise to persecutory anxiety, hence the origins of knowledge are paranoiac in their "most general structure."

Not a bad idea, but I think that one should use the term in the original language it what made in. Lacan probably did not write in spanish (being French in a field dominated by German). Still, I would translate and add the original term in brackets.
Given that this is a word coined by Lacan, don't you think that it would be best to leave it as is, in italics, because it isn't really part of the translator's work to explain the term; the author of the original text should do that. It occurs to me.
