Here, the reader will find a detailed roadmap for each section of the essay, including clarifications of the allusions, implicit borrowings and references in Lacan’s text, unique insights into the essay’s publication history, and a critical assessment of its reception. The author expertly defines key terms, explains complex theoretical arguments, and contextualizes the work within a larger philosophical discourse. No prior knowledge of Lacan, Kant or Sade is assumed, allowing both newcomers and those who are well-versed in psychoanalysis, philosophy, and literary criticism to benefit from the book. This engaging book clears the path for a long overdue re-discovery and a proper appreciation of one of Lacan’s most challenging works, inspiring a renewed debate on the significance of Lacanian psychoanalysis for moral philosophy and literary theory. .The Palgrave Lacan Series,2946-420XPsychology, ComparativePsychoanalysisSex (Psychology)EthicsLiteraturePhilosophyComparative PsychologyPsychoanalysisPsychology of Gender and SexualityMoral Philosophy and Applied EthicsLiterary TheoryPsychology, Comparative.Psychoanalysis.Sex (Psychology).Ethics.LiteraturePhilosophy.Comparative Psychology.Psychoanalysis.Psychology of Gender and Sexuality.Moral Philosophy and Applied Ethics.Literary Theory.156Nobus Danyauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut770235BOOK9910254795503321The Law of Desire2240061UNINA
