Description

This seminar will map out the Dialectical Materialism of Slovenian philosopher, psycho-analyst, and cultural critic Slavoj Zizek. A communist and atheist, Zizek's thought is an original Lacanian inspired repeat of Hegel that recallibrates Materialism. Zizek's incisive structural insights will be explored even as his faith in the Void as the eternal traumatic Real is contrasted with faith in the steadfast Love of God.
