Bodies to Wear: Four Lacanian takes on Trans - By Patricia Gherovici
In Bodies to Wear Gherovici offers a new framework to consider how Lacanian psychoanlysis can work with the transgender subject. Re-thinking Lacan’s notions of the Real. the nothing, ehte enless transformations of the body that pertain to plasticity, the clinamen, and the death drive, Gherovici explores the trans experience as it reveals itself in clinical practice. Bodies to Wear argues for the rediscovery of four key terms that expand Lacan’s central insights and apply to the question of trans today, starting withe critical task of working with transgender.
Everyday Analysis produces a series of pamphlets dealing with contemporay social and political issues. The project is interested in Marxist and Psychoanalytic approaches to politics, culture and economics which take a universalist perspective an refuse to align with prevailing identiarian discourses.
