Jouissance: Sexuality, Suffering and Satisfaction by Darian Leader (English) Pap

Description: Jouissance by Darian Leader Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description "A stimulating psychoanalytic investigation that encourages a rethinking of the term Jouissance"-- Publisher Description Although the term jouissance is common currency in psychoanalysis today, how much does it really tell us? While often taken to designate a fusion of sexuality, suffering and satisfaction, the term has fallen into a purely descriptive use that closes down more questions than it opens up. Although assumed to explain the coalescence of pleasure and pain, it tends to cover a range of quite different issues that should be distinguished rather than conflated. By returning to some of the sources of the concept in Freud, and their elaborations in Lacan, this book hopes to stimulate a debate around the relations of pleasure to pain, autoerotism, the links of satisfaction to arousal, the effects of repression, and the place of the body in psychoanalytic theory. Leader aims to provide context for Lacans work and encourage dialogue with other analytic traditions. Author Biography Darian Leader is a psychoanalyst working in London and a member of the Centre for Freudian Analysis and Research. His books include What is Madness?, Hands and Why Cant We Sleep?
