Reviews

In addition to his lucid presentation of Lacanian theory, Bracher's readings of political and literary discourses furnish a fresh perspective on familiar topics and texts. His objective of making cultural criticism socially significant raises important questions about the functions of criticism and of pedagogy. A thoroughly interesting, appealing, and original book. -Martha Noel Evans

A thoroughly interesting, appealing, and original book. -Martha Noel Evans The project of designing a Lacanian cultural criticism is an ongoing and crucial one, and this book will make a significant contribution to current discussion. It is distinctive in both its theoretical core and its areas of critical analysis. In addition, Bracher's critique of New Historicism is astute and timely and should be productively controversial. -Julia Reinhard Lupton and Kenneth Reinhard
