Jacques Lacan by Sean Homer

Jacques Lacan by Sean Homer

Jacques Lacan is one of the most challenging and controversial of contemporary thinkers, as well as the most influential psychoanalyst since Freud. Lacanian theory has reached far beyond the consulting room to engage with such diverse disciplines as literature, film, gender and social theory. This book covers the full extent of Lacan's career and provides an accessible guide to Lacanian concepts and his writing on: the imaginary and the symbolic; the Oedipus Complex and the meaning of the phallus; the subject and the unconscious; the real; sexual difference. Locating Lacan's work in the context of contemporary French thought and the history of psychoanalysis, Sean Homer's Jacques Lacan is the ideal introduction to this influential theorist.

"Sean Homer manages to pin down the notoriously evasive writings of Jacques Lacan and make them comprehensible, helpfully signposting the journey into deeper philosophical waters" -Metapsychology

Sean Homer is Senior Lecturer in Media Studies at City College, Greece. He is the author of Fredric Jameson (1998) and co-editor (with Douglas Kellner) of Fredric Jameson: A Critical Reader (2004).
