Editorial Reviews

Review

"In Wilden's commentary, specifically Laconian ideas are situated, in a particularly learned an scholarly way, in relation to the diverse theoretical orientations of our time as well as in relation to the diverse theorectical orientations of our time as well as in relation to the wider philosophical traditions and positions... At the present time, Wilden's work remains unique in the world, including France." -- O. Mannoni, Reviews of Current Books.

"Often the translation lifts certain ambiquities from the original version and one can say that Lacon becomes more clear in passing to English." -- Paul Jorion, revue de l'institut de sociologie, Editions de l'University de Buxelles.

"The best introduction to Lacan remains that of Anthony Wilden." -- Year's Work in English

"Those who are concerned with Lacan's overall influence on les sciences de 'homme will profit from Wilden's unparalleled attempt to provide the context necessary for the comprehension of the early work of Lacan." -- American Imago

Review

"Will be of great interest to psychologists, linguists, and literary critics. His brilliant introduction and commentary provide the context necessary for an understanding of... Lacan's place in the history of the 'human sciences.'." -- J. Hillis Miller
