Rezensionen

'Here is a book whose authors immerse themselves in the histories and discourses of psychoanalysis and the forces of cultural and political ideologies to offer reflective and critical analyses of the psychoanalytic "treatment" of queerness. These insightful and at times provocative essays reflect on the quotidian aspects of queer lived lives, the fragilities of the contemporary era, and how they can meaningfully interact with a discipline of psychoanalysis fit for the 21st century.'

Eve Watson, Psychoanalyst and Writer, Dublin

'Psychoanalysis will be queer or it will not be. Against dismissals of psychoanalysis as outdated, biased, patriarchal, heterosexist, transphobic, racist, colonial, and bourgeois, every essay in this book challenges prejudice, debunking myths and assumptions about psychoanalysis while reorienting it brilliantly.'

Patricia Gherovici, Psychoanalyst and Author of Transgender Psychoanalysis, Philadelphia

'The Queerness in Psychoanalysis: From Freud and Lacan to Laplanche and Beyond is a collection of papers that works to provoke, deepen and broaden our psychoanalytic thinking, to take seriously the views of queer subjects, scholarship, psychoanalysts and philosophers. These papers pushed me to learn psychoanalytic and philosophical ideas and schools of thought beyond the limits of my training and exposure. The interdisciplinary scope of the collection offers a unique challenge to curious, expansive readers of psychoanalysis. Raising the voices of queer, trans and gender non-binary people is a welcomed gift and urgent necessity for psychoanalysis at a time when the field still clings to views that pathologize and devalue queer people and seek to marginalize and exclude our input.'
