Description:
The Sublime Object of Ideology is a 1989 book by the Slovenian philosopher and cultural theorist Slavoj Žižek. It is widely considered his masterpiece ¹. In this book, Žižek thematizes the Kantian notion of the sublime in order to liken ideology to the experience of something that is absolutely vast and powerful beyond all perception and objective intelligibility ¹. He also provides an analysis of "How did Marx Invent the Symptom?", in which he compares the ways in which the notion of symptom runs through the work of philosopher Karl Marx and Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis ¹.
