Description

Conversations with Lacan: Seven Lectures for Understanding Lacan brings a unique approach to Jacques Lacan's psychoanalytic theory and ideas. Sergio Benvenuto provides an accessible overview of the key concepts within Lacan's work, situating them at the heart of the linguistic turn. This book offers a clear-sighted exploration of the symbolic, imaginary, and real orders, as well as core concepts like alienation and separation. Benvenuto argues that criticism of psychoanalysis should be accepted by the discipline, suggesting that Lacan's work can help re-conceptualize its role in the future. This introduction to Lacan's ideas will be essential reading for those new to his work, as well as clinicians and scholars already familiar with it.
