He translated around sixty books from French to English, and wrote biographical studies of Jacques Lacan, Michel Foucault and Frantz Fanon.[1][2][3] LifeDavid Macey was born in Sunderland and grew up in Houghton-le-Spring. His father was a miner who had been sent down the pit aged fourteen, and his mother a woman whose family had been unable to afford for her to take up a grammar school place.[2][3] He was educated at Durham Johnston Grammar School and went on to read French at University College London,[1] where he wrote a PhD on Paul Nizan.[4] Interested in trying to link Marxism and psychoanalysis,[1] Macey became a prolific contributor to Radical Philosophy.[2] From 1974 he taught part-time at North London Polytechnic, UCL and City University London. In 1975 he was a founding member of the British Campaign for an Independent East Timor.[3] After his partner Margaret Atack took a permanent post at Leeds University in 1981, Macey left academia to become a full-time writer and translator.[1] Later, in 1995, he was appointed research associate in the French department of Leeds University; in 2010 he became special professor in translation at the University of Nottingham.[3] Macey married Margaret Atack in 1988, and they adopted three children.[1] Selected worksTranslations
