-A lucid and creative consideration of the status and stakes of contemporary cultural criticism, it is essential reading for students of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries--and a monumental challenge to all of us. -Alice Jardine -Harvard University
The linking of psychosomatic to literary and literary to a larger political horizon raises the question of conservative premises of linguistic, psychoanalytic, philosophical, and literary theories and criticisms of such.

What can I say about this classic of (how to even classify it?) psychoanalytic, linguistic, philosophical, Marxist literary analysis? I could say that this book is alternately infuriating, challenging, sublime, and exquisite. But I imagine that you know that if you're reading these reviews. I could say that I think you should read this book...But chances are, you will if you are reading these reviews.
Instead, let me be productive for you. To understand this book, you need to have a passing familiarity with the following subjects (and this list is far from complete):
Hegel
Marx
Lacan
Freud
Biology (geno- and phenotype can be useful to approach how Kristeva uses geno- and phenotext)
Plato
Barthes
Chomsky
Feuerbach
Derrida
Bataille
Heidegger
Deleuze and Guattari
Frege
Hjelmslev
Husserl
And, again, I'm sure there are others I could add to this list but that I can't think of at the moment. Basically, if you do not at least recognize some of the names on the list above, you are not equipped to tackle this book...yet. Each of the above authors is worth getting into; Kristeva just makes them that much more rewarding to have read with her deceptively slim book.
