Description
Lacan dedicates this seventh year of his famous seminar to the problematic role of ethics in psychoanalysis. Delving into the psychoanalysts inevitable involvement with ethical questions and the attraction of transgression, Lacan illuminates Freuds psychoanalytic work and its continued influence. Lacan explores the problem of sublimation, the paradox of jouissance, the essence of tragedy (a reading of Sophocles Antigone), and the tragic dimension of analytic experience. His exploration leads us to startling insights on the consequence of mans relationship to desire and the conflicting judgments of ethics and analysis.
