The burgeoning field of Lacan studies critiques that most discourses have been formed in dominant cultures, considering the impacts of Western imperialism on the structure of non-Western or postcolonial human subjects. This groundbreaking work invites readers to read Jacques Lacan’s Seminars in an interdisciplinary way with scholars from diverse backgrounds. Readers will see a new picture of anamorphosis emerge with possible transformation while facing the uncanny feeling of anxiety through the global peoples’ perspectives.
