Routledge - Transsexuality and the Art of Transitioning Book

Transsexuality and the Art of Transitioning: A Lacanian approach offers a new way to examine psychoanalytic questions regarding gender and sexual difference. By combining clinical perspectives with the study of arts, this work explores how identity and sexuality relate to one another. Written by Oren Gozlan, the text uses a Lacanian perspective to place transsexuality in the space between culture and the clinic. It addresses modern conversations about sexual difference by arguing that identity does not always fully express sexuality. This book provides a deep look at the complexities of gender through a unique lens that connects clinical practice with cultural expression. As the winner of The American Board and Academy of Psychoanalysis (ABAPsa) Book Prize for 2015, this title is a significant contribution to the field of psychoanalysis and LGBTQ+ studies. It is an essential resource for those interested in the intersection of art, culture, and the clinical understanding of gender identity.
