More about the book

Exploring the often-overlooked role of affect in psychoanalysis, this book challenges the misconception that Lacan disregarded emotional experiences. It delves into how subjective suffering initiates analysis and raises questions about the therapeutic process. The author examines the complex interplay of affects that arise in the patient-analyst relationship, ultimately seeking to understand how psychoanalysis can address and alleviate emotional distress. Through this lens, the text offers a nuanced perspective on the significance of affect in therapeutic settings.
