About this book

This book examines the relationship between art and death from the standpoint of Lacanian psychoanalysis. Its distinctive move is to refer openly to the death drive as it appears both in theories of art and in artworks themselves.

The authors start from Freud's treatment of death, which concerns not the moment of biological extinction but the recurring moments in life that Freud associated with the death drive. The argument carries that idea into the study of art.
