das Ding and drive, with Daniel Wilson
Description
In this episode, Daniel Wilson discusses the notion of the unconscious Thing ("das Ding") in the work of Freud, Lacan, and Apollon, as the inaccessible cause of the subject and thus the crucial problem at stake in desire and the drive over the course of an analysis, and in an individual's life.
