Alain Badiou has claimed that Quentin Meillassoux's book After
Finitude (Bloomsbury, 2008) "opened up a new path in the history of
philosophy." And so, whether you agree or disagree with the
speculative realism movement, it has to be addressed. Lacanian
Realism does just that. This book reconstructs Lacanian dogma from
the ground up: first, by unearthing a new reading of the Lacanian
category of the real; second, by demonstrating the political and
cultural ingenuity of Lacan's concept of the real, and by
positioning this against the more reductive analyses of the concept
by Slavoj Zizek, Alain Badiou, Saul Newman, Todd May, Joan Copjec,
Jacques Ranciere, and others, and; third, by arguing that the
subject exists intimately within the real. Lacanian Realism is an
imaginative and timely exploration of the relationship between
Lacanian psychoanalysis and contemporary continental philosophy.
