Description

Jacques Lacan and the Philosophy of Psychoanalysis by Ellie Ragland-Sullivan is a comprehensive critical analysis of the French philosopher's thought. This volume fills a significant gap in the English-speaking world, providing a clear and authoritative foundation for future studies of Lacan's work. Working primarily from Lacan's legendary Seminars, Ragland-Sullivan clarifies and synthesizes his major concepts using empirical data and Lacan's own texts. The result is a new epistemology that extends far beyond conventional thinking in psychoanalysis, psychology, philosophy, and linguistics. This book offers a thorough exploration of Lacan's teachings, making it an essential resource for scholars and researchers seeking to understand the complexities of his philosophy.
