Subjectivity and Language in Freud and Lacan: From the Subject of the Unconscious to the Pragmatic Turn of Philosophy
Abstract
The following article presents an analysis of the conflict that occurs between philosophy and psychoanalysis in both the works of Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan; This conflict is conveyed from the alienated condition of the subject that arises from the thesis of the unconscious. The subject deconstructs himself as consciousness and reveals the impossibility of him in the very act in which he presents himself through his saying. In this way, language configures the Freudo-Lacanian idea of the unconscious in the form of an act of performative iteration, not so much at the level of consultation, but as the founding cogito of philosophical and scientific reflection.
