"There have been at least six different translations of [Lacan's] writings into English, and some of the early translations are notoriously unreliable. . . . Fink's precise new translation makes this pivotal period in Lacan's thought more accessible to English speakers."
—PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, starred review
Brilliant and innovative, Jacques Lacan's work lies at the epicenter of modern thought about otherness, subjectivity, sexual difference, the drives, the law, and enjoyment. Yet his seemingly impenetrable writing style has kept many readers from venturing beyond the first page.
This new translation of his most famous work offers welcome, readable access for the very first time to all of the papers in the original French edition, most of which have never before been available in English. It includes such well-known texts as "The Mirror Stage," but also seminal texts on criminology, temporal logic, group theory, literature, metaphor, masks, negation, the unconscious, sadism and masochism, science, feminine sexuality, the variable-length session, transference, psychoanalytic ethics, technique, and institutions, to name just a few.
BRUCE FINK is the author of A Clinical Introduction to Lacanian Psychoanalysis and The Lacanian Subject, and the translator of Lacan's Seminar XX (Encore). He teaches at Duquesne University and is a practicing Lacanian psychoanalyst.
