Axel Nesme, « Wallace Stevens and the Lacanian Ethics of Desire », HAL-SHS : littérature, ID : 10670/1.0n7tgn
This article focuses on Wallace Stevens and Sigmund Freud which leads to consideration of Stevens and psychoanalysis by several theorists. It argues on Stevens' connection to Kantian ethics which lies in treatment of the thing and not as the noumenon beyond the reach of perceptual knowledge but as the kernel of bodily enjoyment. It examines on the new light which might be shed on the poetry of Stevens by the unorthodox thesis of Jacques Lacan despite the apparent divorce of the object of desire.
