The Lacanian Subject: Between Language and Jouissance

Author(s) : Bruce Fink

Reviews and Endorsements

Fink provides the first clear, comprehensive, and systematic account of Lacan’s work in English. The influence of this book is certain to be immense on theorists and therapists alike as it provides the fully articulated foundations for a Lacanian pedagogy and makes generally available a radically new understanding of the analyst’s role. A magnificent piece of intellectual synthesis and an imposing and original contribution to psychoanalytic thought.
Richard Klein, professor emeritus, Cornell University

The Lacanian Subject not only provides an excellent introduction into the fundamental coordinates of Jacques Lacan’s conceptual network; it also proposes original solutions to (or at least clarifications of) some of the crucial dilemmas left open by Lacan’s work.
Slavoj Žižek, Journal for Psychoanalysis of Culture and Society

A remarkably clear, competent, and indeed fascinating account of one of the most influential thinkers of the twentieth century.
Susan Buck-Morss, author of The Origin of Negative Dialectics
