Description

Explore the profound connection between creative expression and the human psyche with Art, Death and Lacanian Psychoanalysis by Routledge. This academic text provides a deep look into how art and death relate through the lens of Lacanian psychoanalytic theory. Rather than focusing on biological extinction, this work examines Freud's concept of the death drive, also known as the compulsion to repeat. It investigates the recurrent moments in life where the most unbearable aspects of a subject return. By making explicit references to how this drive manifests in various theories of art and within specific artworks, the book offers a unique perspective on the motivations behind human creativity. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the intersection of psychology and the arts. It provides a rigorous framework for understanding how the drive to repeat and the presence of death influence the creation and interpretation of art.
