- Freud as philosopher: metapsychology after Lacan
Lacan intended for people to not understand him, precisely because he wanted to be properly understood. One of the ironic twists that Rick Boothby and Todd McGowan have pointed out is that Freud was misunderstood precisely because he is easy to read. The difficulty of Lacan makes us hold our perception of his ideas in abeyance until we feel like we have come to a more comprehensive and well-worked understanding of his texts and seminars.
