Description

Anxiety in Lacan's Seminar X is explored through a step-by-step examination of its presentation of anxiety structure. Christian Fierens considers why and how this structure depends on speech, even when it remains between the symbolic and real. The author discusses the connection between anxiety and the Lacanian object a, which puts doubt into the obviousness of any object. This book delves into the importance of anxiety for psychoanalytic practice, determining that the object a is fundamentally void and discussing encountering nothingness. Ultimately, Fierens establishes that this nothingness inside the object and anxiety leads to the truth of anxiety, making it a valuable resource for students and clinicians seeking a practical approach to coping with anxiety in psychoanalysis.
