The second volume in the Studying Lacan’s Seminars series, this book is the first comprehensive study of Lacan’s Seminar VI: Desire and its Interpretation. A natural companion to Bruce Fink’s recent translation of the seminar into English (2019), this book offers a genuine opportunity to delve deeply into the seminar, and a hospitable introduction to Lacan’s teachings of the 1950s. 
This important book brings together various aspects of Cox Cameron’s teachings and systematic, careful, and critical readings of Seminar VI. Lacan’s theorizing and conceptualizing of the object a, the fundamental fantasy, and aphanisis, as well as the ambiguous treatment of the phallus in his work at the time, are all introduced, contextualized, and explored in detail. The trajectories of his thinking are traced in terms of future developments and elaborations in the seminars that follow closely on the heels of Seminar VI – Seminars VII (Ethics of Psychoanalysis), VIII (Transference), IX (Identification), and X (Anxiety). Consideration is also given to how certain themes and motifs are recapitulated or reworked in his later teachings such as in Seminars XX (Encore), and XXIII (The Sinthome). Also included in this volume are two further essays by Cox Cameron, a most valuable critique of the concept of the phallus in Lacan’s theories of the 1950s, and an overview of Seminar VI originally presented as a keynote address to the APW congress in Toronto 2014. 
The book is of great interest to Lacanian scholars and students, as well as psychoanalytic therapists and analysts interested in Lacan’s teachings of the 1950s and in how important concepts developed during this period are treated in his later work.

History

Fleming H. Revell Co.

Unpromising beginnings. Undreamed-of endings.\nMemories—historic, holy, hilarious—flicker like fireflies in the twilight years of my long life. They begin their dance in 1931, in dust-drowned Oklahoma, and light my path to the capitals of the world. Only now that I’m old enough to take time to look back, and back further still, have I seen how early a life-pattern began to form. And that every part had a purpose: From childhood illnesses that drove my impoverished family to drastic migration; to loneliness that drove me to music and books; to inner struggles between confidence and despair—all those seemingly negative experiences set me up and drove me gladly to God, and He changed everything.\nWith my husband, Jimmy Owens, I’ve been privileged to partner with and love some of the most godly, talented, loyal, funny people ever created: Jack Hayford, Pat and Shirley Boone, Andrae Crouch, Barry McGuire, Keith and Melody Green, The 2nd Chapter of Acts, Michael and Stormie Omartian, Jamie Owens-Collins, Paul Baloche, David and Dale Garratt are a few I’ve mentioned here. Together, we have helped shape the way our world worships and prays.\nSo, that said, who would read my story?\nPerhaps Christians who have sung my and Jimmy’s music in their churches—simple worship choruses such as Freely, Freely; Holy, Holy; Clap Your Hands—and may not have known who wrote them. Or those who toured America and Britain with our big productions such as Come Together or If My People or The Witness. Or those courageous people who attended or performed them behind the Iron Curtain, hiding from the Communists; or underground in Egypt, hiding from the Islamists; or who sang If My People Will Pray on the streets as they went to face an army during the Philippine revolution.\nThen there’s a younger generation of Christians who may simply find our adventures compelling, even surprising. And especially, I pray, that those whose beginnings have not been promising may find new courage as they see what God can and will do in spite of all manner of disadvantages, weaknesses and mistakes.\nThe tale is not strictly chronological: It begins at the beginning, but with much backing-and-forth-ing when memories spark. They are memories of an octogenarian seeking the highlights of a long life—like chasing fireflies in the twilight.

Psychoanalysing Ambivalence with Freud and Lacan: On and Off the Couch

Swales, Stephanie

Taking a deep dive into contemporary Western culture, this book suggests we are all fundamentally ambivalent beings. A great deal has been written about how to love -&nbsp;&nbsp;to be kinder, more empathic, a better person, and so on. But trying to love without dealing with our ambivalence, with our hatred, is often a recipe for failure. Any attempt, therefore, to love our neighbour as ourselves&nbsp;-&nbsp;&nbsp;or even, for that matter, to love ourselves -&nbsp;must recognise that we love where we hate and we hate where we love. Psychoanalysis, beginning with Freud, has claimed that to be in two minds about something or someone is characteristic of human subjectivity. Owens and Swales trace the concept of ambivalence through its various iterations in Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalysis&nbsp;in order to question how the contemporary subject deals with its ambivalence. They argue that experiences of ambivalence are, in present-day cultural life, increasingly excised or foreclosed, and that this foreclosure has symptomatic effects at the individual as well as social level. Owens and Swales examine ambivalence as it is at work in mourning, in matters of sexuality, and&nbsp;in our enjoyment under neoliberalism and capitalism. Above all, the authors consider how today's ambivalent subject relates to the racially, religiously, culturally, or sexually different neighbour as a result of the current societal dictate of complete tolerance of the other. In this vein, Owens and Swales argue that ambivalence about one's own jouissance is at the very roots of xenophobia. Peppered with relevant and stimulating examples from clinical work, film, television, politics, and everyday life, Psychoanalysing Ambivalence breathes new life into an old concept and will appeal to any reader, academic, or clinician with an interest in psychoanalytic ideas.
