 We're putting Laplanche to work through the prism of our deep engagement with work that comes out of queer theory and trans and trans of color critique in particular. And one of the things that Laplanche helps us think about, but again, with these resources coming from outside psychoanalysis, queer and trans studies, Laplanche helps us think about how material on the outside becomes available, like cultural material. He uses the language Laplanche does of the mythosymbolic, but material in culture.
