The French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan is one of the most
influential intellectuals of the past century. His work is invoked
by philosophers, film critics and feminist theorists, but religious
scholars have tended to keep their distance. Whilst the religious
dimensions of Freud and Jung have been investigated exhaustively,
much work still needs to be done in exploring this aspect of
Lacan's thought. "Lacan and Religion" presents students of religion
and theology with a clear introduction to a famously difficult
thinker. The theological analysis is grounded in a solid
understanding of Lacan's work as a psychoanalyst, whilst the book
also explores how Lacan's concepts can be fruitful for those who
labour in what Lacan called the "field of the divine."
