Description de l'ouvrage :
Psychoanalysis has always been based on the eclipse of the visual and on the primacy of speech. The work of Jacques Lacan though, is strangely full of references to the visual field, from the intervention on the mirror stage in the Forties to the elaboration of the object-gaze in the Sixties. As a consequence, a long tradition of film studies used Lacanian psychoanalysis in order to explain the influence of the subject of the unconscious on the cinematographic experience. What is less known is how the late Lacanian reflection on the topic of analytic formalization opened up a further dimension of the visual that goes beyond the subjective experience of vision: not in the direction of a mystical ineffable but rather toward a subtractive mathematisation of space, as in non-Euclidean geometries. In an exhaustive overview of the whole Lacanian theorization of the visual, counterpointed by a confrontation with several thinkers of cinema (Eisenstein, Straub-Huillet, Deleuze, Ranciere), the book will lead the reader toward the discovery of the most counterintuitive approaches of Lacanian psychoanalysis to the topic of vision.
À propos de l'auteur :
Pietro Bianchi
Revue de Presse :
"Although the idea of the gaze as object played an important part in Lacanian psychoanalysis, it has rarely been found useful in practical film criticism. Pietro Bianchi's impressive analyses are here therefore groundbreaking, and his accounts both of Lacanianism and of modern French film theory are impressively lucid and eloquent. This is a stimulating and original book in all respects." (Professor Fredric R. Jameson, Knut Schmidt-Nielsen Professor of Comparative Literature and Director of Institute for Critical Theory Duke University 2016-12-01)
"Jacques Lacan's theory of vision, centered around the gaze as an object, is arguably the most complex theory of vision to have been conceived. Pietro Bianchi's subtle book leads the reader by the hand through all of its complexities, explaining it in clear conceptual moves, displaying its vast ramifications and developing it further as a magnificent tool for the understanding of cinematic practice. The best introduction for those who want to get acquainted with it, but far more than an introduction - a genuine insightful new work by a young theorist about whom we are going to hear a lot." (Professor Mladen Dolar University of Ljubljana, Slovenia 2016-12-01)
