Book Synopsis Literature and psychoanalysis by : Jeremy Tambling

Download or read book Literature and psychoanalysis written by Jeremy Tambling and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-30 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literature and Psychoanalysis is an exciting, and compulsive working through of what Freud really said, and why it is so important, with a chapter on Melanie Klein and object relations theory, and two chapters on Lacan, and his work on the unconscious as structured like a language. Investigating different forms of literature through a careful examination of Shakespeare, Blake, the Sherlock Holmes stories, and many other examples from literature, the book makes the argument for taking literature and psychoanalysis together, and essential to each other. The book places both literature and psychoanalysis into the context of all that has been said about these subjects in recent debates in the theory of Derrida and Foucault and Žižek, and into the context of gender studies and queer theory.
