Žižek, S. (1993) #redirect [[Tarrying with the Negative: Kant, Hegel and the Critiqueof Ideology, Durham: Duke University Press.This is probably Žižek's lengthiest consideration of the radical nega-tive gesture which he consistently identifies as the hallmark of 'true'philosophy. Here he sets out the case that Lacan is the third philoso-pher to accomplish this gesture after Plato and Kant, both of whomalso trumped the relativistic attitudes of their day by way of an act of even greater radicalization. While this may be the larger picture of thebook, and part of his project as a whole, Žižek also produces his mostsustained explanation of Hegel's philosophy here, as well as dissectingthe cogito. As this synopsis suggests, Tarrying with the Negative is, attimes, a difficult book but one which repays the effort of your labour. [[Category:Works]][[Category:Books]][[Category:Žižek]][[Category:Psychoanalysis]]
