Jacques Lacan The French Context

Although many books have been published on Jacques Lacan that attempt to explain his work and to provide insights into the relationship between his work and his life, most of them depend largely on the small number of texts that were published in his lifetime. JACQUERS LACAN, published to great acclaim in France in 1986, has now been translated into English. It is the first look at Lacan and his work from within the French context. Marcelle Marini, a knowledgeable insider, provides a full chronological, biographical, and bibliographical dossier - year by year - of the progress of Lacan's work.
