Law and the Unconscious by Peter Goodrich

Law and the Unconscious is the first work of the French legal philosopher Pierre Legendre to appear in English. Trained as a lawyer, a historian and a psychoanalyst, the work of Pierre Legendre has consistently confronted law with the teaching and methods of psychoanalysis. The present collection of essays addresses a fascinating and diverse set of themes including the doctrinal regulation of tears, dance and law, the desire for the absolute, the war of texts, and the power of images.
Pierre Legendre is Emeritus Professor at the University of Paris 1, and Honorary Research Director at the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes.
