What if Jacques Lacan--the brilliant & eccentric Parisian psychoanalyst--had worked as a police detective applying his theories to solve crimes? This may conjure up a mental film clip starring Peter Sellers in a trench coat but in Lacan at the Scene Henry Bond makes a serious & provocative claim: that apparently impenetrable events of violent death can be more effectively unraveled with Lacans theory of psychoanalysis than with elaborate technologically advanced forensic tools. Bonds exposition on murder expands & develops a resolutely i ekian approach. Seeking out radical & unexpected readings Bond unpacks his material utilizing Lacans neurosis-psychosis-perversion grid. Bond places Lacan at the crime scene & builds his argument through a series of archival crime scene photographs from the 1950s--the period when Lacan was developing his influential theories. It is not the horror of the ravished & mutilated corpses that draws his attention; instead he interrogates seemingly minor details from the everyday isolating & rephotographing what at first seems insignificant: a single high heeled shoe on a kitchen table for example or carefully folded clothes placed over a chair. From these mundane details he carefully builds a robust & comprehensive manual for Lacanian crime investigation that can stand beside the FBIs standard-issue Crime Classification Manual. ...
