The Freudian Subject by Mikkel Borch-Jacobsen (English) Paperback Book

Description: The Freudian Subject by Mikkel Borch-Jacobsen Just what is the subject in Freud? The author draws on a wide range of French critical thought to argue that the subject is always fundamentally identification, in an even more radical sense than has previously been postulated. Rigorously examining the texts of Freud, he arrives at compelling rereadings of familiar concepts, concluding with a disturbing new analysis of the social bond.

Author Biography Professor Sonu Shamdasani is a historian of psychology and psychiatry and is widely regarded as the leading Jung historian at work today. His numerous publications have been translated into many languages and his last edited book, Jungs Red Book (2009) was on The New York Times bestseller list and a documentary is currently being prepared on the subject. Review Borch-Jacobsen asks a simple question, but one that Freud missed: How does one speak of unconscious representation, or even of unconscious fantasy? A thorough familiarity with contemporary psychoanalytical work and with philosophical treatments of the subject, identification, and mimesis informs this masterly book, which will be indispensable to all future discussions of Freud.
