描述: The dissertation examines the relationship between privileged modes of considering temporality and corresponding claims to musical knowledge in late 20th century compositional discourse from a psychoanalytic (particularly Lacanian) perspective. Grounded on the presupposition that the Freudian "discovery" of the unconscious is consubstantial with a specific configuration in the domain of art, the dissertation studies the ways in which the unconscious resonates within this discourse. It shows the discursive constitution of a musical object defined by the advent of the unconscious, and it establishes the possible positions within its epistemological horizon. Presented as case studies, each of the three chapters of the dissertation offers a localized analysis and a critical reading of distinct modes of considering the musical object in relation to the unconscious: from the historical materialism of post-serial composer Helmut Lachenmann, through the phenomenological explorations informing spectral composer Gerard Grisey, and to the experimental endeavors of John Cage. Chapter 1 examines the temporal logic underlying the work of post-serial composer Helmut Lachenmann. Rooted in Walter Benjamin's philosophy of history and Theodore Adorno's aesthetic theory (itself much imbued with a reading of Freud), Lachenmann's musico-theoretical corpus unveils a historical-materialist critique of the metaphysics of presence. I locate in Lachenmann's work an emancipatory, utopian premise, emblemized in his notion of the "sounding fermata," correlative to Adorno's notion of the "breakthrough": a violent irruption that suspends the phantasmagoric production of presence, thereupon revealing a moment of truth. Chapter 2 examines the phenomenological explorations of spectral composer Gerard Grisey in relation to the temporality of the drive. Taking the phenomenological critique of the Cartesian subject as a point of departure, Grisey attempted to formulate a new relation to the sonorous
