    Mladen Dolar - A Voice and Nothing More

    Mladen Dolar - A Voice and Nothing More

    This week, we present the third episode in our series of interviews with the Troika — after Slavoj Žižek, and Alenka Zupančič . We’re speaking with Mladen Dolar, Professor and Senior Research Fellow at the Department of Philosophy, at the University of Ljubljana.


    Dolar is the co-founder of what has become known as ‘the Ljubljana School’. His principal areas of research are psychoanalysis, modern French philosophy, German Idealism, and art theory. He has lectured extensively at universities in the US and across Europe, and he is the author of over a hundred papers in scholarly journals and volume collections. Apart from ten books in Slovene, his book publications include most notably A Voice and Nothing More and Opera’s Second Death.


    We’re talking the voice, May 68, the early days in Ljubljana, Lacan, rumours and gossip, what’s in a name, and the decline of paternal authority.

Still don’t understand Zizek

The obscene kernel of truth: this pod rocks

A bit stale

needs a dose of dialectics. Feels like a dictionary entry honestly

Great podcast

Really love this podcast! They are able to break down a lot of the important concepts in Zizek’s work without watering it down. I am impress with their episode on For They Know Not What They Do.
