Reviews for My Teaching

What does one discover in this book? First of all a language which, far from being jargon-heavy, has the ring of luminous clarity. Next, a sense of humour which delights in paradoxes, hops from one subject to another and takes the reader from the most elementary level to the most complex. A thought, of course, which cannot be easily summarized. A benevolence too, which reassures the layperson and helps when following the course of the talk. Finally, an immense fidelity which never ceases to invite us to reread Freud. -Elle This is certainly a book to recommend to all those who want to have a look at what Lacan has to say but who are reluctant to tackle his Ecrits or his Seminars. -Sciences humaines
