About Lectures on Lacan:
Clear and coherent readings of Jacques Lacan’s work are rare. Rarer still are those which make his seminars and writings accessible to non-specialized audiences. Which is why I’ve designed Lectures on Lacan! If you’re looking for close, concise, and widely accessible readings of key texts in Lacanian Psychoanalysis, this is is the channel for you.
