  • Psychoanalysis, Philosophy and Myth in Contemporary Culture: After Oedipus
    2017
    Co-Authors: Angie Voela
    Abstract:

    This book examines the use of myth in Contemporary popular and high Culture, and proposes that the aporetic subject, the individual that ‘does not know’, is the ideal Contemporary subject. Using several Contemporary novels, films and theatrical plays that illustrate aporia – such as Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief (Riordan, 2007), Tron Legacy (Koninski, 2010), Welcome to Thebes (Buffini, 2010), The Photographers (Koundouros, 1998), Prometheus (2012) and Prometheus Retrogressing (Sfikas, 1998) – Angie Voela introduces common ground between Lacanian psychoanalysis and some of Freud’s most ardent critics, Michel Foucault and Jean Baudrillard, as well as the cultural philosopher Bernard Stiegler. These unprecedented systematic comparisons broaden the scope and impact of Lacanian psychoanalysis in inter-disciplinary debates of philosophy and Culture and Voela argues that apart from dealing with the past, psychoanalysis must also deal more explicitly with the present and the future. She presents a unique inquiry into modern subjectivity that will be of great interest to scholars of psychoanalysis, philosophy, film, literature and Contemporary Culture.

  • Participations: Dialogues on the Participatory Promise of Contemporary Culture and Politics — Introduction
    International Journal of Communication, 2014
    Co-Authors: Henry Jenkins, Nick Couldry
    Abstract:

    One of our goals in launching the International Journal of Communication, in addition to demonstrating the viability of non-commercial open access scholarly publication at the highest level, was to take full advantage of the capabilities of online publishing to serve as a forum for a variety of contributions and conversations. Thus, our Features category has included lectures, policy papers and debates, interviews, and other writings that are not traditional scholarly articles or book reviews. In this spirit, we are delighted to introduce a new dimension to our platform, one that will further extend the possibilities afforded by our non-commercial online format under a new category called “Forum.” In the new section that we are calling Participations: Dialogues on the Participatory Promise of Contemporary Culture and Politics, Editorial Board members Nick Couldry and Henry Jenkins engage scholars in informal discussions of Contemporary Culture and politics. The conversations presented are the result of a series of open-ended conversations that they initiated with colleagues and that seemed to them―and to us―to be worth pursuing in this more public and open-ended venue. Five key topics will be discussed: creativity, labor, politics, knowledge and education, and platforms. In the spirit of opening and continuing the conversation, we welcome comments and contributions from our readers. There is an “add comment” function available when you access each dialogue (including this introduction) to enter your feedback. We look forward to your responses.
