Product details

What is an event? In his new book, the internationally celebrated philosopher and cultural critic Slavoj Žižek explores this age-old question by making distinctions: first, he considers the event as framing, as a fall, and as enlightenment. Then, Žižek distinguishes three events in philosophy: truth, the self, the universal. Finally, he discusses three events in psychoanalysis: the real, the symbolic, the imaginary. From Plato to Buddhism, Shakespeare, Wagner, Chesterton, Hegel, and of course Lacan, Žižek reveals the essence of the event to ultimately outline the central contours of an answer to the crucial question: What is a political event? A provocative and entertaining journey into philosophy, a true Žižek.
