## Description

Slavoj Žižek, the maverick philosopher, author of over 30 books, acclaimed as the “Elvis of cultural theory”, and today’s most controversial public intellectual. His work traverses the fields of philosophy, psychoanalysis, theology, history and political theory, taking in film, popular culture, literature and jokes—all to provide acute analyses of the complexities of contemporary ideology as well as a serious and sophisticated philosophy. His recent films The Pervert’s Guide to the Cinema and Žižek! reveal a theorist at the peak of his powers and a skilled communicator. Now Verso is making his classic titles, each of which stand as a core of his ever-expanding life’s work, available as new editions. Each is beautifully re-packaged, including new introductions from Žižek himself. Simply put, they are the essential texts for understanding Žižek’s thought and thus cornerstones of contemporary philosophy. The Sublime Object of Ideology : Slavoj Žižek’s first book is a provocative and original work looking at the question of human agency in a postmodern world. In a thrilling tour de force that made his name, he explores the ideological fantasies of wholeness and exclusion which make up human society.

Review: A difficult read - Difficult to understand for those not immersed and educated in philosophy.
Review: An 'Absolutely' Wonderful adventure in insight - A brave exploration of all absolute justifications, a tribute to Lacanian psychoanalysis, a must read for anyone who desires an exit ramp from the transcendental maze. Zizek offers his powerful insight. A book of great value.

*by M***A on March 29, 2017*

Excellent. One of the best books I've read so far. I do not know how this book did not fall before in my hands. Reading the book has motivated me to analyze everything that has to do with our reality and virtual reality. I recommend this book for the students of literature, or theory and criticism. It should be part of a personal library or academic library.
