Cheers, Mikey! Like yourself, Helen's one of the clearest and most astute thinkers I've come across in the Lacanian-Hegelian theory scene! PS. Will be reading your superego piece this weekend
For me, the Korean movie "Burning" is a miracle in its exploration of subjectivity and the way contradiction is complete woven through it in both form and content. At least in Citizen Kane, while he loses Rosebud, he finds that really nice cane that almost makes up for the loss.
I haven't watched it, but I will now. It's a good one for the weekend. Also, thank you very much for the financial support through PayPal, mate. I appreciate it!
Im not immersed enough in theory but my instincts are that she has a level headed take on things, much in the same way McGowan does (in my opinion). I liked her comments on the concept of "lack"
@@Feline-friend007 Totally, mate. As I said in my unnecessarily long introduction, I have begun recommending Helen's books as an introductory text to those interested in Lacanian theory.
Yay! Helen has so much to contribute to theory! I'll be listening to this today while I'm sitting here writing more of my book.

@@christianlesniak And I ended up watching Burning... wow! I think I'm going to write an essay on it. 🤯
@@RahulSam I know, right?! It gets even better every time I watch it.
