Lacan's Seminar on Anxiety

With a foreword by Charles Shepherdson

Designed for novices as well as students of psychology and literary criticism, these systematic lectures do much to clarify Lacan’s groundbreaking work on the birth of the subject and its links with Freud’s theory of drives. Moreover, they answer some of the criticisms that have been leveled at Lacan by forms of psychoanalysis unable or unwilling to incorporate his ideas.
