CORNALBA VINCENT: LAGADO

The author conceives of the issue of change in language in adolescence as the working of that mutative dimension of which the entire pubertary process is an expression. The destitution which can at any moment seize upon a word attest to the lack which is consubstantial with any language.

It is by the other that the address and its reception would be assured of a kind of permanence, despite the signifying lack.
