This reference work provides detailed definitions for over 200 Lacanian terms. Attention is given both to Lacan's use of common psychoanalytic terms and how his own terminology developed through the various stages of his teaching. Taking full account of the clinical basis of Lacan's work, the historical and institutional background to Lacanian ideas is given, and each major concept is traced back to its origins in the work of Freud, Saussure, Hegel and others.
