Red Library: A Political Education Podcast for Today's Left

What IS Sex? (Pt. 2)


Listen Later

Part of Red Library's Real Late Night Philosophy Hourz Series

Comrade Commissar Alex and I continue our dive into the ontological abyss of sex that is Alenka Zupancic's brilliant work on Lacanian psychoanalytic theory, What IS Sex?

For part 2, we talk about the development of ideas of masculine and feminine in psychoanalysis, the ontology of sex, totality and infinity, signification, history, scientific paradigms, have some nice picture time, life and death, and tons more as per usual.

STAY ONTOLOGICALLY THIRSTY, COMRADES.
