Zizek: A Guide for the Perplexed: Guides for the Perplexed

Autor Sean Sheehan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 ian 2012
One of the most widely-read thinkers writing today, Slavoj Zizek's work can be both thrilling and perplexing in equal measure. Zizek: A Guide for the Perplexed is the most up-to-date guide available for readers struggling to master the ideas of this hugely influential thinker. Unpacking the philosophical references that fill Zizek's writings, the book explores his influences, including Lacan, Kant, Hegel and Marx. From there, a chapter on 'Reading Zizek' guides the reader through the ways that he applies these core theoretical concepts in key texts like Tarrying With the Negative, The Ticklish Subject and The Parrallax View and in his books about popular culture like Looking Awry and Enjoy Your Symptom! Major secondary writings and films featuring Zizek are also covered.

Sheehan's earnestly friendly little book... carefully explains the "objet petit a", the difference between "early" and "later" Zizekian accounts of "the real", and what Zizek takes from Kant and Lenin, before providing deft paraphrases of the main arguments (such as they can be discerned) in Zizek's major books, as well as some cute characterisations of their dramatic arcs.

[Sheehan] has a reassuring tone and nice judgment. His exposition of German idealism, especially, provides a useful service for many of those preparing to tackle the large forthcoming volume that Zizek himself has tantalisingly described as his 'boring book on Hegel'.
