Sobre la construcción humana en el lenguaje

Abstract

This paper presents some specific ideas with which it proposes to guide the articulation between language and psychic constitution. It also highlights some of the ideas that we consider to become essential milestones when discussing the manifestations of speech in the clinical dimension. We take the Freudian guide, according to which the free association allows access to the unconscious, and thus psychoanalysis gets away from other therapeutics and positions language —in the same way that some authors like Octavio Paz do— as a matter closely related to existence. In this perspective, we go over Jacques-Alain Miller's ideas. Following Lacan, he gives language a symmetry with the notion of ‘structure’.
