About this book

Read My Desire: Lacan Against the Historicists by Copjec, Joan. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780262032193.

Copjec conjures a dialogue between Jacques Lacan, champion for psychoanalysis and Michael Foucault, champion for historicism, with the object of Lacan winning this time; usually the historicists smite the psychoanalysts with the charge of historical indifference and walk away unanswered. She makes a case for the superiority of Lacans explanation of historical process, its generative principles, and its complex functionings. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
