In parallel to her own analytic comments on these inventions, Fran輟ise Davoine follows the writing of the novel itself, keeping the reader constantly aware that Sterne's endeavour is a race against death-his own. Davoine points out that time acts as a major character in the novel, constantly upsetting chronology, and bringing about the same impasses as the psychoanalysis of madness and trauma does.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book presents Shandean wit as a valuable tool in therapeutic work. \u003ci\u003eShandean Psychoanalysis\u003c\/i\u003e will be of great interest to psychoanalysts and to academics and students engaged in psychoanalytic studies, literary studies and trauma-related studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fran輟ise Davoine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032125128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032125121\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/30\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.94lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.64d","brand":"Fran輟ise Davoine","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44123229028607,"sku":"9781032125121","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ef84b230-8414-4362-9e3d-c177d93b76b2.jpg?v=1687429677","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/shandean-psychoanalysis-franoise-davoine-9781032125121","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
