Lacan and Levi-Strauss are often mentioned together in reviews of
French structuralist thought, but what really links their distinct
projects? In this important study, the author shows how Lacan's
famous 'return to Freud' was only made possible through Lacan's
reading of Levi-Strauss. Via a careful and illuminating comparison
of the work of the psychoanalyst and that of the anthropologist,
Zafiropoulos shows how Lacan's theories of the symbolic function,
of the power of language, of the role of the father and even of the
unconscious itself owe a major debt to Levi-Strauss. Lacan and
Levi-Strauss is much more than an academic study of the relations
between these two thinkers: it is also a superb introduction to the
work of Lacan, setting out with detail and lucidity the major
concepts of his work in the 1950s.
