But if any one – any whole or totality – is inherently inconsistent, then how does a name refer to the objects it denotes? Descriptivists (such as John Searle) argue that names refer to objects because of the meaning implicit to the name. According to descriptivism, a name is like a cluster of positive properties, descriptive features that comprise the meaning of the word. For example, the intensional meaning of the term “mouse” consists of the properties connoted by the word: being a small furry rodent, having large ears and a long thin tail, squeaking, nibbling holes in cheeses, etc. The extensional meaning of the word “mouse” is all of the entities in the universe denoted by this term. Intension has logical priority over extension insofar as the set of universal properties connoted by t... (查看原文)
Because of this negativity, opposites are never harmoniously reconciled in any higher “synthesis.” Instead, their difference is posited as such, in the form of an inconsistent totality.

齐泽克速成大法之一种 这本书涵盖了对他2010年之前发表的24本主要英文作品的概略（作者自己说这是个“guide”） 此外在导论部分也有较为详细的对人物整体思想的勾画 再加上结尾的further reading 算是一本非常良心的导读类书籍了 http://pan.baidu.com/s/1dEEPexj

大概翻了翻，这本比拜德雅那本还好一些，理解很准确，写法是给齐泽克写过的几本书都各写了个导读，不过我认为硬读齐泽克也能理解牢齐的意思，这本未必是必要的。读一手也总比读二手有更多启发。
