Violence and the Mimetic Unconscious, Volume 2: The Affective Hypothesis - Studies in Violence, Mimesis & Culture
Nidesh Lawtoo
In volume two of a Janus-faced diagnostic of the cathartic and contagious effects of (new) media violence, Nidesh Lawtoo traces a genealogy of a long-neglected, embodied, relational, and highly mimetic unconscious that, well before the discovery of mirror neurons, posited mirroring reactions as a via regia to a phantom ego.
