LECTURES ON LACAN ARCHIVE 💥🤘🏽
Discover more from Lectures on Lacan
As you know, Lectures on Lacan is dedicated to clear, coherent, and accessible readings of key texts in Lacanian psychoanalysis. Today, I’m writing with an important new development in our mission.
With HUGE thanks to all of the clinicians, scholars, students, trainees, and independent learners who continue to make Lectures on Lacan possible, and in direct response to mounting calls for open access to our previous work, I’ve decided to make the Lectures on Lacan archive increasingly accessible & increasingly FREE!
From now on, whenever one of our podcast series ends, I will release the complete lecture series on which it was based, along with all of the mathemes, diagrams, and formulas we developed in the original sessions — and hopefully the complete lecture transcripts soon thereafter!
Just three requests:
All are welcome to these materials, so please share them widely via email, listserv, social media, and the like — however you know how to get the word out!
All of the lecture transcripts are works in progress, so please let me know if you notice any errors, or if you have any other suggestions for their improvement.
If you appreciate the work we do, please show your support by donating to Lectures on Lacan. Big or small, all donations help us keep the series going!
