Desire, Identification, and Two Peculiar Deaths
In Wuthering Heights, both Catherine's and Heathcliff's deaths contradict their strong character; these deaths are best explicable in relation to the early intertwining of identification and desire, as expounded by Lacan and Kristeva. Furthermore, the story of the second generation—which disappoints most readers—is shown actually to continue the first

Deleuze's "Masochism" and the Heartbreak of Waiting
Gilles Deleuze’s theory of masochism insightfully illuminates Ha Jin’s novel Waiting; at the same time, Jin’s novel indicates a problem with Deleuze’s fairly rigid separation of masochism and sadism. This essay argues that Waiting supports Deleuze’s position, but also that Deleuze’s theory needs to be further developed and refined
Paternity, Enframing, and a New Revealing
This article seeks to demonstrate the importance of the philosophical work of Mary O'Brien. It does so by showing how O'Brien's work counters Heidegger's strict differentiation between the ancient Greek metaphysics of presence and modern technological thinking. O'Brien's ideas indicate two critical lacunae in Heidegger's interpretation of the ancient Greeks: the latter's attempt to secure paternity and their overlooking of birth as a form of unco…
The Object of Desire Speaks
This article presents a detailed examination of Ingeborg Bachmann's ‘Undine geht’. It argues for the uniqueness of this work: the text's astonishing ability to depict an object who is also a subject, able to articulate her otherness. Undine is a speaking and desiring subject at the same time as she remains an object of projection. The article compares Bachmann's short story with Irigaray's extensive philosophical and feminist project, showing the…
After Lacan
This wide-ranging collection of essays, stemming from the clinical work of Willy Apollon, Danielle Bergeron, and Lucie Cantin, compellingly elaborates psychoanalytic concepts in a manner that must interest anyone concerned with the practical import of Lacan's work, but also anyone drawn to Lacanian theory. Diverse as they are, the essays nevertheless cover the core Lacanian concepts, those crucial to an understanding of the uniqueness of Lacan's …
There Where Primary Narcissism Was, I Must Become
Introduction This essay explores the psychoanalytic work of Lou Andreas-Salomé, specifically in relation to theories of the development of the ego. That Andreas-Salomé's writings have received so little attention is especially regrettable in light of the many ways in which they anticipate current discussions. Andreas-Salomé perceives an inconsistency in Freud's thinking on the formation of the ego; she senses, even when she does not explicitly st…
