This is followed by an exploration of Lacan's seminar on \"Lituraterre\" in 1971, wherein Lacan elaborates on the different ways in which literature appeared to turn towards lituraterre. Finally, Biswas considers Lacan's 1975-1976 seminar on James Joyce, who created literature out of \"litter\" and was concerned with jouissance rather than with meaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Major Literary Seminars of Jacques Lacan\u003c\/i\u003e will be of great interest to Lacanian psychoanalysts, other mental health practitioners interested in the teachings of Lacan, and academics and students of Lacanian studies, literature, and psychoanalysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Santanu Biswas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032748001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032748009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.47d","brand":"Santanu Biswas","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48484189307135,"sku":"9781032748009","price":48.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2dd184f1-fe7f-4307-bbf3-8d8bdd751f4b.jpg?v=1778043009","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-major-literary-seminars-of-santanu-biswas-9781032748009","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
