In this first English translation of a classic text by one of the
foremost commentators on Lacan's work, Nasio eloquently
demonstrates the clinical and practical import of Lacan's theory,
even in its most difficult or obscure moments.
Five Lessons on the Psychoanalytic Theory of Jacques Lacan is
the first English translation of a classic text by one of the
foremost commentators on Lacan's work. Juan-David Nasio makes
numerous theoretical advances and eloquently demonstrates the
clinical and practical import of Lacan's theory, even in its most
difficult or obscure moments. What is distinctive, in the end,
about Nasio's treatment of Lacan's theory is the extent to which
Lacan's fundamental concepts -- the unconscious, jouissance, and
the body -- become the locus of the overturning or exceeding of the
discrete boundaries of the individual. The recognition of the of
the implications of Lacan's psychoanalytic theory, then, brings the
analyst to adopt what Nasio calls a "special listening".
