Two Kinds of Lack

In this episode I am trying to briefly cover the concept of lack and the two ways in which it insists in every human being. I am using the work of Mari Ruti, especially her book Penis Envy and Other Bad Feelings ... an alternative title could be (if I'm understanding this correctly) Castration and other forms of Lack ... or Ontological Lack and Contingent Lack. 

I plan to interview Professor Ruti in the coming weeks and will record episodes leading up to the interview in the attempt to make sure I am grasping as well as possible her work. 

Thanks, 

Tyler
