📱 eBook en inglés ONTOLOGICAL CATASTROPHE: ŽIŽEK AND THE PARADOXICAL METAPHYSICS OF GERMAN IDEALISM

This book is an original investigation into Slavoj Žižeks return to German Idealism in the wake of Lacanian psychoanalysis. As is well known, Žižek creates productive friction between these traditions by isolating their mutually compatible notions of the death drive, paving the way for Žižeks highly original model of the subject. Joseph Carew systematizes the stark metaphysical consequences of Žižeks account. If the emergence of the Symbolic out of the Real marks the advent of a completely self-enclosed structural system, then we must posit the absolute as a fragile not-all wrought by negativity and antagonism.
