Agnieszka Doda Žižek's Problems with Excess Agnieszka Doda begins her discussion of the issue of excess in Slavoy Žižek'swritings with a motto from Roland Barthes's A Lover's Discourse which introduces some of the key notions explored throughout the essay: love, desire, return and repetition. Žižek's works are interpreted with the aid of psychoanalytic theories; Doda' s conc­lusions owe much to the avatars of (mostly) French postmodernism: Jean Francois Lyotard, Roland Barthes, Alexandre Kojeve and Jacques Lacan. Their views are confronted with hirgen Habermas's rejection of desire as an inevitable factor in our descriptions of consciousness. In her conclusion, Doda reaffirms the linguistic quality of experience which can never be purged of desire.
