Book, Lacanian Psychopathology vol 1 Semiology[LS]

Language: Brazilian Portuguese. This first volume of Lacanian Psychopathology, dedicated to semiology, was born from the observation that the clinical literature available in Portuguese takes a predominantly descriptivist perspective in approaching mental phenomena. The proposal here is a Lacanian treatise on psychopathology intended to illuminate the internal mechanism of what is superficially described. The Lacanian discourse is taken in this book not as a circumstantial choice of a particular view of the clinical phenomenon, but rather as the effect of a forced decision: the authors of this work believe that there is no way to understand the mechanism of delirium, hallucination, mood swings , nor the functions of consciousness, perception, intelligence and judgment of reality without going through the doctrine of Jacques Lacan.
