Jacques Lacan’s post-war “return to Freud” played a significant role in the history of psychoanalysis in France, both for psychoanalytic theory and its clinical application, and went on to achieve international recognition and acclaim. Jacques Lacan’s literal interpretation of Freud’s texts and his introduction of the question of the father into the order of language—more specifically, its reduction to the paternal metaphor—enable us not to confine psychoanalysis to the cultural particularities of each country and to understand the significance of the concepts it introduces in the fields of the imaginary, the symbolic and the real.
The renewal of clinical practice is achieved through the examination of Freudian concepts, which highlights Lacan’s contribution to the development of psychoanalytic discourse. A survey of the successive aspects of the concept of foreclosure demonstrates how the psychoanalytic approach to psychosis has evolved. For both Freud and Lacan, this approach was grounded in Schreber’s writings and, later, those of Joyce. This edition seeks to trace the development of psychoanalytic theory and clinical practice, and to familiarise readers with its concepts and methodology.
