Synopsis

This is a reader which provides considerable study material, some of which is appearing for the first time in English, on the subject of psychoanalysis in relation to writing. The collection is composed of both classical and modern texts, including translations of Foucault, Lacan and Kristeva, and the book is divided into four sections: the first section contains texts which discuss and theorize about the nature and relevance of psychoanalysis in relation to writing; the second section directly confronts the issue of madness and writing; the third section is devoted to Freud, in particular Freud's analysis of "Oedipus Rex", "Hamlet" and "The Brothers Karamazov". The fourth and last section is composed of early and recent examples of the engagement between psychoanalysis and literature. The author has taken care to provide perspectives on the same writer, text ot concept, whether Freud and Sollers on Dostoevsky, or Freud and Lacan on "Hamlet".
