It turns to Zizek because not only is he one of the most popular intellectuals in the world, but, this book argues, his discourse is shaped by a set of unconscious rhetorical processes that also determine much of contemporary politics, culture, and subjectivity. Just as Aristotle argued that the three main forms of persuasion are logos (reason), pathos (emotion), and ethos (authority), Samuels describes each one of these aspects of communication as related to a fundamental psychoanalytic concept. He also turns to Aristotle?s work on theater to introduce a fourth form of rhetoric, catharsis, which is the purging of feelings of fear and pity. Adding a strong voice to current psychoanalytic debate, this book will be of value to all scholars and students interested in both the history and modern developments of psychoanalytic theory. Robert Samuels has doctorates in Psychoanalysis and English. He teaches advanced writing and rhetoric at the University of California, Santa Barbara, USA. He is the author of fifteen books, including Freud for the Twenty-First Century. 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aCritical psychology 606 $aPsychoanalysis 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 606 $aCritical Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20170 606 $aPsychoanalysis$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H54026 606 $aCultural Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411130 606 $aPsicologia analítica$2thub 606 $aRetòrica$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aCritical psychology. 615 0$aPsychoanalysis. 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 615 14$aCritical Psychology. 615 24$aPsychoanalysis. 615 24$aCultural Theory. 615 7$aPsicologia analítica 615 7$aRetòrica 676 $a199.4973 676 $a150.198 700 $aSamuels$b Robert$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0614320 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910416137403321 996 $aZizek and the Rhetorical Unconscious$92005648 997 $aUNINA
