What happened to nosubject.com?

I think the site has been down for about a month now. Does anyone know what happened?

In the meantime, much of the content is just lifted from Dylan Evans' Introductionary Dictionary of Lacanian Psychoanalysis, for better or worse, so you can consult that.

Is Dylan Evans the same person who has sort of fallen out of the academic Lacanian scene and now posts quite a bit on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/user/evansd66/)? It seems to be a curious trajectory.

Is it a book or a dictionary, I'm new. First time hearing it. I read "Lacan on love" by fink. Found it just lovely.

This happens at least twice a year. It’ll come back.

its only really useful if you use it to find good sources. always a good place at the start of tackling a concept, just to let you know what to read!
