Reviews

K. Daniel Cho’s work on genius accomplishes what seems impossible: it democratizes genius. Through a rigorous and delightful theorization of genius, Cho takes the concept back from the elites and gives it to the people. Genius After Psychoanalysis will transform the conception of genius for everyone who reads it – and everyone should read it. Cho’s book is absolutely not to be missed. It reveals not just the truth of genius but exemplifies how we might reinterpret all the concepts that suffuse our daily lives with an unconscious resonance that remains as yet unexplored. * Todd McGowan, Professor of English, University of Vermont, USA * Cho's superb mediation on Freudian and Lacanian theories of sublimation teaches us how to be 'geniuses together.' The argument presented in this cogent and astute re-examination of the whole psychoanalytic canon leads us not to try and emulate Leonardo or Steve Jobs but to embrace life, a life touched by the sublime – a life with and beyond the death drive. * Jean-Michel Rabaté, Professor of English and Comparative Literature, University of Pennsylvania, USA, American Academy of Arts and Sciences *
