Rezensionen

"This book illuminates the meaning of structure in the work of Jacques Lacan. A detailed study, it offers a reassessment of Lacan's structuralism in the context of Lacan's later work, thereby raising the question of structure in the context of topology and logic. It's a fascinating study which even the most dedicated reader of Lacan will learn from." - Russell Grigg, Deakin University, Australia

"Ellie Ragland portrays a distinctive understanding of Lacan's oeuvre, navigating her elaborations through his structural period, and beyond. Her singular style, founded on the North American context, envelops a unique abstraction of Lacanian ideas." - Natalie Wülfing, psychoanalyst, member of the World Association of Psychoanalysis, lecturer at the MA Psychoanalysis, Kingston University, UK
