Lacanian Antiphilosophy and the Problem of Anxiety

More about the book

The exploration of anxiety in this work challenges conventional philosophical notions by juxtaposing Jacques Lacan's theories with phenomenology and existentialism. Brian Robertson critically examines the widely accepted belief that anxiety is objectless, offering a fresh perspective that provokes deep reflection on authenticity and the nature of anxiety itself. Through this confrontation, the book seeks to redefine and enrich the understanding of anxiety in contemporary philosophical discourse.
