Book Synopsis Jacques Lacan and the Adventure of Insight by : Shoshana Felman
Book excerpt: Felman analyzes Lacan's investigation of psychoanalysis not as dogma but as an ongoing self-critical process of discovery. By focusing on Lacan's singular way of making Freud's thought new again, Felman shows how this moment of illumination has become crucial to contemporary thinking and has redefined insight as such.
