Abjection, Melancholia and Love (eBook, PDF)

The Work of Julia Kristeva
Redaktion: Fletcher, John; Benjamin, Andrew

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Julia Kristeva's blend of the literary with the psychoanalytic places her work central to current thinking, from semiotics and critical theory to feminism and psychoanalysis. Her profound understanding of the dynamics of intention and creativity mark her out as one of the leading theoreticians of desire.

Each essay in this volume offers new insight into the many aspects that make up Kristeva's thought, ranging from her analyses of sexual difference, female temporality and the perceptions of the body to the mental states of abjection and melancholia, and their representation in painting and literature.
