This text explores the place of psychoanalysis and its language in 20th-century culture. It systematically reviews key psychoanalytic theories and explores their significance to modern life. The analysis incorporates the work of key figures ranging from Freud to Zizek.
Parker systematically reviews the key psychoanalytic theories to reveal social processes and their significance to modern life: Freud and object relations theory is directed towards group processes, religion and war; the Frankfurt School is used to examine modern individuality, authoritarianism and changes in culture; and the Lacanian tradition to account for language, representation and self-improvement. The theoretical analysis incorporates throughout the volume the work of key figures ranging from Adorno, Habermas and Fromm to Klein, Kristeva, Winnicott and Zizek.
