Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. These essays explore the final period of Jacques Lacan's teaching, focusing on his 1975-76 seminar "Le Sinthome". The collection aims to shed light on the central questions of this last "phase" of Lacanian theory and unravels the principal enigmas of the seminars. The work as a whole intends to break through previous obstacles to the act of reading Lacan's last work, among them the notorious restrictions placed upon the publication and translation of Lacan's teaching. The contributors examine Lacan's late work from a variety of perspectives. They consider his theories on Boromean knot topology and rethink readings of his views on sexual difference, his encounter with Joyce and even his consideration that his work was not theory at all, but rather a kind of writing. These essays offer a reading of works previously considered elusive. The collection should be of interest to students and practitioners alike. The contributors mark the territory for a more widespread deployment of Lacanian theory in our cultural landscape, from modernism to deconstruction and feminism.

Paperback. Condition: New. From its very beginning, psychoanalysis sought to incorporate the aesthetic into its domain. Despite Joyce's deliberate attempt in his writing to resist this powerful hermeneutic, his work has been confronted by a long tradition of psychoanalytic readings. Luke Thurston argues that this very antagonism holds the key to how psychoanalytic thinking can still open up new avenues in Joycean criticism and literary theory. In particular, Thurston shows that Jacques Lacan's response to Joyce goes beyond the 'application' of theory: rather than diagnosing Joyce's writing or claiming to have deciphered its riddles, Lacan seeks to understand how it can entail an unreadable signature, a unique act of social transgression that defies translation into discourse. Thurston imaginatively builds on Lacan's work to illuminate Joyce's place in a wide-ranging literary genealogy that includes Shakespeare, Hogg, Stevenson and Wilde. This study should be essential reading for all students of Joyce, literary theory and psychoanalysis.…
