Gebräuntes Exemplar mit beriebenem und verschmutztem Einband. - "Inventor of the short session, intimate of French intellectuals like Camus and Sartre, Jacques Lacan has remained an enigma since his expulsion from the International Psychoanalytic Association. Now Stuart Schneiderman provides a close-up portrait of this controversial figure. "Stuart Schneiderman's brilliant and confident book about Lacan, which one reads in a single avid and effortless sitting, comes almost as a shock. Mr. Schneiderman writes like someone who has arrived in a room slightly out of breath, with so much to say that he doesn't even take off his coat. He is a former academic who in 1973 did what no other Lacan-struck American had thought to do: He picked up and went to Paris to be analyzed by Lacan and to receive analytic training at Lacan's Ecole freudienne."
