Rhetoric and Culture in Lacan - Gilbert D. (Indiana University) Chaitin - Bog

This is the first book to explore Lacan's theory of poetry and its relationship to subjectivity and history. Chaitin's lucid study explores Lacan's move beyond the polarities of poetics and philosophy to embrace literature's role in the creation of self hood. This book is a definitive study of Lacan's theoretical development across the entire career.
