Description

Book Synopsis
Derrida and Lacan have long been viewed as proponents of two opposing schools of thought. This book argues, however, that the logical structure underpinning Lacanian psychoanalytic theory is a complex, paradoxical relationality that corresponds to Derrida's 'plural logic of the aporia'.

Trade Review
"An informative staging of an encounter between Derrida and Lacan ... intellectually joyful." -- -Michael Payne Bucknell University "Hurst brokers the relationship between Derrida and Lacan with great delicacy. Through patient, sympathetic, and often eye-opening readings of both, she maintains the separateness of these titans of French thought even as she draws them convincingly close together." -- -Joan Copjec The University at Buffalo, SUNY
