The Seminar of Jacques Lacan: The Four Fundamental Concepts of Psychoanalysis by Jacques Lacan

1.0

Having only been exposed to Lacan via Žižek and (the near-useless) Introducing Lacan, I figured I'd go to the source to gain a deeper knowledge of his concepts. To my disappointment, I found this book to be almost but not quite entirely incomprehensible. No sooner would a concept begin to gain clarity and momentum like a bubble rising to the surface, than it would burst in an effervescent cloud of gas - leaving me no more enlightened than when I began.
