Overview

Although psychoanalytic criticism has long been established as a practice in its own right, dialogue between the clinical and the aesthetic has so far been perfunctory. This innovative book sets out to show in detail that there is a poetics of the unconscious equally at work in both domains, the critical potential of which has been missed by both sides.

Synopsis

This new book is a lively and original study of psychoanalysis and its relations to the arts.
