Madness as Prior to Reason,
By david gray carlson (New York, New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hegel's Theory of Madness (Suny Series in Hegelia (Suny Series in Hegelian Studies) (Paperback)
Daniel Berthold-Bond explains why, in Hegel's Philosophy of Mind (part 3 of the Encyclopedia), madness is logically prior to reason. The answer lies in the extreme negavity of consciousness. Mad destruction is required before the subject can build a symbolic existence. The work is heavily Lacanian without any evidence in the footnotes that this was consciously intended. The book does much to make the under-recognized connections between the thought of Hegel and Lacan. The book is extremely well written and is one of the finest contributions to Hegelian interpretation in recent times.
