Contents:
1. The Criteria of the Future -- 2. Primal Scene, Ground Zero: Lévi-Strauss, Lacan, and the Wolf Man beyond the Seduction -- 3. Madness and the Sensitive Anthropologist: Lévi-Strauss's New Structuralism -- 4. Two Traumas, Not One: The Feminine in Myth -- 5. The Mythologist's Aesthetic Task: Amelia -- 6. Sex for Structuralists: From Myth to Fantasy -- 7. How Do We Use Structuralism?.
Summary: This book argues that structuralism makes itself useful when it engages with the non-Oedipal logics of femininity and psychosis. Building from the psychoanalytic belief that norms repress unconscious desire while structures open onto the creative resources of the symbolic, Sex for Structuralists looks to key texts in myth, trauma, and unconscious fantasy by Sigmund Freud, Jacques Lacan, and Claude Lévi-Strauss. It also examines innovative writings by contemporary Lacanian thinkers in order to discover what becomes of structuralism when the ground upon which it ostensibly stands (namely, that of the zero symbol or the incest prohibition) drops out from under it.
