James Joyce’s Writing and Psychoanalysis
James Joyce’s Writing and Psychoanalysis brings together leading Joycean scholars and internationally renowned Lacanian clinical psychoanalysts to evaluate the significance of Joyce’s writing for contemporary culture and practice.
Joycean scholars, together with psychoanalysts, critically engage with the importance of Joyce’s writing in conceptualising the unconscious, subjectivity, the Oedipal drama, madness, Laplanche’s maternal seduction theory, mourning, Lacan’s elaboration of the sinthome as a special type of symptom, Joyce’s anticolonialism, and essays encompassing Joyce with Kant and Tolkien. Drawing from A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Ulysses, Finnegans Wake, Exiles, Joyce’s poetry, and aspects of his life story, this book is essential reading in discerning the impact of Joyce’s writing, as pure artistry, on literary theory and psychoanalytic theory and practice.
James Joyce’s Writing and Psychoanalysis will be of great interest to psychoanalysts in practice and in training as well as academics and scholars of psychoanalytic theory, literary theory, arts and liberal arts studies, philosophy, Irish studies, history, gender studies, feminist studies, linguistics, cultural studies and French and English literature.
