About the Book

Since the death of Jacques Lacan, Jean Laplanche is now considered to be one of the worlds foremost psychoanalytic thinkers. In spite of the influence of his work over the last thirty years, remarkably little has been available in English. Essays On Otherness presents for the first time in English many of Laplanche's key essays and is the first book to provide an overview of his thinking. It offers an introduction to many of the key themes that characterise his work: seduction, persecution, revelation, masochism, transference and mourning. Such themes have been increasingly both in psychoanalytic thought and in continental philosophy, social and cultural theory, and literature making Essays On Otherness indispensable reading for all those concerned with the implications of psychoanalytic theory today.

Table of Contents:
Introduction: Psychoanalysis and the Question of the Other; Chapter 1 The Unfinished Copernican Revolution; Chapter 2 A Short Treatise on the Unconscious; Chapter 3 The Drive and its Source-Object: Its Fate in the Transference1Laplanche’s title purposely echoes that of Freud’s 1915 paper, ‘Triebe und Triebschicksale’, which appears as ‘Instincts and their Vicissitudes’ in the Standard Edition of the Complete Psychological Works of Sigmund Freud (1915c), SE XIV, pp. 109–40, translator’s note].; Chapter 4 Implantation, Intromission; Chapter 5 Interpretation between Determinism and Hermeneutics: A Restatement of the Problem; Chapter 6 Seduction, Persecution, Revelation, Jean-Pierre Maïdani-Gérard; Chapter 7 Masochism and the General Theory of Seduction; Chapter 8 Transference: Its Provocation by the Analyst; Chapter 9 Time and the Other; Chapter 10 Notes on Afterwardsness1These ‘notes’ are based on a conversation between Jean Laplanche and Martin Stanton recorded in 1991. They appeared in Jean Laplanche: Seduction, Translation and the Drives, eds John Fletcher and Martin Stanton, London: Institute of Contemporary Arts, 1992, and have been added to and revised by Professor Laplanche for this volume (1998).;

About the Author :
Jean Laplanche is Professor Emeritus of Psychoanalysis at the University of Paris, (VII).

Review :

'Essays on Otherness offers the most original, philosophical sophisticated, and far-reaching critical reading of Freud's metapsychology since Lacan. Exegetically scrupulous and rigorously argued, these essays go straight to the heart of the psychoanalytical enterprise.' - Peter Osborne, Professor of Modern European Philosophy, Middlesex University

'[Laplanche's] philosophical and psychoanalytical studies are now becoming increasingly drawn upon by cultural theorists and critics, and this work is helped enormously by the publication of Essays on Otherness and the comprehensive and illuminating introduction by John Fletcher.' - New Formations
