Book Description

In this major work, leading theorist Samuel Weber provides a much-needed introduction to the thought of Jacques Lacan. Lacan's complex relationship to his Freudian antecedents is explored extensively in the context of Saussure, Jakobsen, and structural linguistics generally. The result is a constantly illuminating work of intellectual enquiry, with important implications for modern literary theory.
