The Rebirth of Lacan

The most comprehensive work on the theories of Lacan.
The general summary in Part I is a readable guide for those unfamiliar with Lacan. It helps readers to discern and appraise the core theoretical and clinical contents and concepts of Lacanian psychoanalysis. It gives the reader profound questions to ponder: Why has Lacan been dubbed a successor to Freud? How are the long-ranged examples of Lacanian psychological application possible? How can we explain the symptoms of anxiety that every individual goes through in this complicated modern society?
Part II contains articles on Lacanian psychoanalysis. It touches on the philosophical theories of modern and contemporary Western philosophers such as Decarte, Kant, Freud, Saad, Kierkeggard, Saussure, Levinas, Althusser, Foucault, Deleuze, Derrida, Baudrillard, Klein, Butler, and Zizèk.
Part III is a collection of writings that shows how Lacan’s theories are specifically applied to the criticism of literature, art and film. It presents interesting cases of applied psychoanalysis and concrete examples of exquisite and dynamic cultural analyses.
