Jacques Lacan is one of the most challenging and controversial of con-
temporary thinkers, as well as the most influential psychoanalyst since
Freud. Lacanian theory has reached far beyond the consulting room to
engage with such diverse disciplines as literature, film, gender and
social theory. This book covers the full extent of Lacan’s career and
provides an accessible guide to Lacanian concepts and his writing on:
0111
• the imaginary and the symbolic
• the Oedipus complex and the meaning of the phallus
• the subject and the unconscious
• the real
• sexual difference.

and the history of psychoanalysis, Sean Homer’s
Jacques Lacan
is the
ideal introduction to this influential theorist.
