Beschreibung
Lacan on the Road explores a large number of talks, lectures, and interviews that Jacques Lacan gave away from his famous seminar in Paris. As well as providing an opportunity to examine some lesser-known works of Lacan, the book specifically seeks to explore how Lacans rhetoric and style changed for various audiences. Sometimes, Lacan used talks away from his seminar to summarize current developments from his teaching and state them more succinctly and aphoristically. At other times, he used the opportunity of talking to an unfamiliar audience to announce completely new ideas. Readers familiar with the seminars will know that Lacan often came back invigorated from trips abroad or even from locales closer to home, such as Belgium and Italy. This book provides the opportunity to examine what he said on those occasions when he was away. What emerges here, then, is rich and rewarding supplemental body of Lacans work.
