Lacan held that if the unconscious, as Freud described it, exists, it functions linguistically, rather than symbolically or instinctually. He refers to the unconscious as a language: \"the discourse of the Other.\" In \u003ci\u003eThe Language of the Self\u003c\/i\u003e Lacan offers a significant and fertile return to the heart of the Freudian texts. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginally published in paperback under the title \u003ci\u003eSpeech and Language in Psychoanalysis\u003c\/i\u003e, this book is based on Anthony Wilden's translation of \"Fonction et champ de la parole et du langage en psychanalyse,\" a 1953 article that became a manifesto for a generation interested in a new reading of Freud. Wilden expands and amplifies the text with extensive notes and a commentary that places Lacan's work in the context of contemporary thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJacques Lacan\u003c\/b\u003e (1901-81) is the author of numerous works on psychoanalysis, philosophy, and literary theory. \u003cb\u003eAnthony Wilden \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of several books, including \u003ci\u003eMan \u0026amp; Woman, War \u0026amp; Peace\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 368\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 9 x 5.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 15, 1998\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52694961193267,"sku":"9780801858178","price":65.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/b3ZtN1J5YW9vWmg3VnY2MlB0aDVLdz09.webp?v=1763078367","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/the-language-of-the-self-the-function-of-language-in-psychoanalysis-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
