READING LACAN'S ÉCRITS (w/ Samuel McCormick)

In this interview with Dr. Samuel McCormick various topics and approaches for reading Lacan, and specifically his work in the Écrits. Some of these topics include the distinction between pleasure and jouissance, the nature of free association, the question of the drive, the distinction between truth and knowledge, as well as some connections to Lacan and philosophy, including his relation to Heidegger and the concept of being-toward-death. This conversation is meant to be an overall primer for diving into the Écrits yourself.
