What is Lacan: The Silent Partners; Ed. By Slavoj Zizek about?

<p>Jacques Lacan is the foremost psychoanalytic theorist after Freud.<br> Revolutionising the study of social relations, his work has been a major influence on political theory, philosophy, literature and the arts, but his thought has so far been studied without a serious investigation of its foundations. Just what are the influences on his thinking, so crucial to its proper understanding?</p> <p>In <b>Lacan: The Silent Partners</b> Slavoj Zizek, the maverick theorist and pre-eminent Lacan scholar, has marshalled some of the greatest thinkers of our age in support of a dazzling re-evaluation of Lacan's work. Focussing on Lacan's 'silent partners', those who are the hidden inspiration to Lacanian theory, they discuss his work in relation to the Pre-Socratics, Diderot, Hegel,<br> Nietzsche, Schelling, Hölderlin, Wagner, Turgenev, Kafka, Henry James and Artaud.</p> <p>This major collection, including three essays by Zizek, marks a new era in the study of this unsettling thinker, breathing new life into his classic work.</p> <p>Contributors: Alain Badiou, Bruno Bosteels, Miran Bozovic, Lorenzo Chiesa,<br> Joan Copjec, Mladen Dolar, Timothy Huson, Fredric Jasmeson, Adrian Johnston,<br>
