Gary Snyder and the American Unconscious : Inhabiting the Ground Hardback
by T. Dean
Part of the New Directions in American Studies series
Hardback
Description
This book presents a new theory of American culture based not on the phenomenologically- and existentially-derived vocabularies of consciousness, which have dominated earlier accounts, but rather on a revitalized notion of the unconscious.
Drawing on the writings of the French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan, Dean develops a theory of the constitution of the very notion of America itself as based on a complicated relation to the American landscape.
