Book synopsis

Jacques Lacan has had a major influence on twentieth-century thought, shaping developments in literature, philosophy and cultural studies. The sheer scale and breadth of his output has sometimes intimidated students and academics coming to his work for the first time. Martin Murray provides a lucid, concise and up-to-date survey of Lacan's key concepts, their influence in anthropology, linguistics, philosophy, mathematics and psychoanalysis, and how they developed over time. Murray argues that we should move beyond the focus on Lacan's earlier studies, which favoured a linguistic approach, in order to achieve a more comprehensive overview. This book offers an authoritative account of Lacan's concepts, in an accessible and inclusive study that will encourage a full appreciation of his work.
