Like Freud, Lacan has been heralded not just as an important psychoanalyst but as an intellectual whose influence and ideas have spread beyond the narrow confines of a specialized discourse. This clear and accessible introduction to the main concepts and theories of Lacan's life-work also relates his ideas to feminism, film and literature. It provides an overview of the basic themes and preoccupations of Freudian psychoanalysis and discuss the influence of surrealism on Lacan's work, the different theoretical traditions on which he draws, and his changing views about language. It also includes an examination of his first major book "Ecrits". The book is part of a series reflecting the broad spectrum of modern European and American theory. It focuses on those cultural theorists who have had the most significant impact in the 20th century. The series aims to show how modern thinkers differ in their aproaches to interpreting culture, texts, society, language, history, gender and social life. Designed to be accessible to students, each volume in the series discusses the thought and work of often difficult theorists in a clear and informative way, balancing exposition and critique.
