Subjectivity and Otherness: A Philosophical Reading of Lacan (Short Circuits)by Lorenzo Chiesa
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Countering the call by some pro-Lacanians for an end to the exegesis of Lacan's work--and the dismissal by anti-Lacanians of Lacan as impossibly impenetrable-- Synopsis:The evolution of the concept of subjectivity in the works of Jacques Lacan. About the Author"With this volume, Lorenzo Chiesa establishes himself as the leader of a new generation of "young Lacanians", for whom Lacan is primarily a text that needs to be read. Avoiding the need to pledge his doctrinal allegiance to a master, and refusing the endless regurgitation of mantras, Chiesa ploughs through the Lacanian territory with a razor-sharp intellect, constantly unearthing original themes and motifs, and weaving patterns of thought into an intellectual system that proves to be everything but systematic and, for that matter, all the more convincing. Chiesa reads Lacan philosophically, not just insofar as he short-circuits psychoanalysis and philosophy, but also insofar as he approaches the dense text with extreme care and conscientiousness. I don"t think Lacan has ever been read with so much patience and exactitude, and had this book been produced during Lacan"s lifetime, there is no doubt that he would have recommended it to his audience as a brilliant example of critical reading."Dany Nobus , Professor of Psychology and Psychoanalysis, Brunel University, UK What Our Readers Are SayingBe the first to add a comment for a chance to win!Product Details
