This paper examines the conditions that enabled the lacanian formulation of the concept of subject. The key texts of our inquiry are Lacan's thesis "Paranoid psychosis and its relation to the personality" and the texts published during the next four years following his thesis presentation (1932-1936). We delineate three crucial moments for Lacan's formulation of the concept of subject. The first moment is the approach to the field of psychoanalysis as a function of the problematic that animates the thesis. The second is the statement of impasses related to the psychoanalytical theory of narcissism and to the freudian account of the origins of the Ego. The final moment is Lacan's discovery of a support to solve these theoretical impasses in his appropriation of the hegelian philosophy that he encountered throughout Alexandre Kojève's course on the Phenomenology of Spirit. We termed this articulation of hegelian dialectic of self-consciousness with freudian metapsychology "Lacan's operation" - whose first product was the formulation of the mirror stage in 1936.

Keywords : Subject; Lacan; Hegel; Psychoanalysis; The mirror stage.
