5.0 out of 5 stars
A fascinating collection of Lacanian commentary,
By A Customer
This review is from: Gaze and Voice As Love Objects (Series: SIC 1) (Paperback)
Ever since Jacques Lacan entered the intellectual
ring in the 1950s he has been a focal point of discussion and stimulation. His elusive, intriguing, often profound writings have generated
wave upon wave of commentary and inspiration. Slavoj Zizek is one of the most lucid (and certainly entertaining) explicators of Lacan. He and Renata Salecl have edited a superb collection of essays by some of the most interesting and articulate writers in the field. Though these writings require a certain familiarity with the disciplines of philosophy and psychoanalysis they should entice adventurous readers by their combination of erudition and wit. Both of Zizek's contributions are astonishing as well as entertaining. Fine as it is, the essay by Frederick Jameson seems out of place, as though it belonged in a different anthology.
