Starting from the thesis that what lies at the heart of repetition is an ontological principle of duality, Bara Kolenc introduces four matrices of repetition: deflation, reformation, inflation, and formation. The fourth--formation--underlies the modern subject. While the contours of this scheme can be traced back to the ancient Greeks, Kierkegaard is the first to have articulated it fully, paving the way for Freud and Lacan to outline its logic most clearly. Rich and rigorous, \u003ci\u003eRepetition and Subjectivity \u003c\/i\u003eprovides a new foundation for understanding modern subjectivity. Newly examining a range of philosophical and psychoanalytic concepts, from the Greek \u003ci\u003eanámnesis\u003c\/i\u003e (remembering) to the death drive and \u003ci\u003ejouissance\u003c\/i\u003e, Kolenc reveals\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003erepetition to be not simply a phenomenon but rather a central mechanism in forming the subject's relationship with reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBara Kolenc\u003c\/b\u003e is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University of Ljubljana.
