Lacan’s Cruelty
This collection, written by leading Lacanian psychoanalytic theorists and practitioners, is a unique exploration of the novel aspects of perversion from the perspective of cruelty—a psychoanalytic study that has never been sufficiently undertaken in an English-speaking world. Instead of reducing the notion of perversion to cultural representations, a historical discourse or a clinical diagnosis, the authors in this collection draw on Freud, Kant, Hegel, Marquis de Sade, Derrida, Deleuze and Žižek to untie the knot of “psychic cruelty” intrinsic to perversion and therefore “de-sexualize” perverted acts. They do so by theorizing perversion in psychoanalytic concepts of the Oedipus complex, the-Name-of-the-Father and jouissance, and furthermore in the perspective of the clinics of neurosis and psychosis, in dialogue with a clinical praxis, philosophy and literature.
Antigone
Sophokles’ Antigone is an ancient play that speaks directly to contemporary issues. From conflicts between authoritarian regimes and those who protest them to struggles over racial and gender discrimination, students and general readers will find a touchstone in this classic work. The central questions of the play continue to resonate: What is the nature of justice? What is the place of civil disobedience in civil society? What is the proper exercise of power for those in authority? This edition provides a readable new translation of Antigone along with helpful annotations, a comprehensive introduction to the play, and a general introduction to Ancient Greek theatre.
