"The double, doppelgänger, is mostly understood as a peculiar figure that emerged
in nineteenth-century Romantic and gothic literature. Far from being a merely esoteric
entity, however, this book argues that the double, although it mostly goes unnoticed,
is a widespread phenomenon that has significant influence on our lives. It is an inherent
key element of human subjectivity whose functions, forms, and effects have not yet
gained the serious consideration they merit. Drawing on literature, philosophy, and
psychoanalysis, and combining a personal story with theoretical interventions, Double
Trouble develops a novel understanding of the double and human subjectivity in the
last two centuries. It begins with the singular and narcissistic double of Romanticism
and gradually moves to the multiple doubles implicated by postmodernism. The double
is what defies unicity and opens up the subject to multiplicity. Consequently, it
gradually emerges as a bridge between the I and the Other, identity and difference,
philosophy and literature, theory and praxis"
