520 One of the foundational premises of Jacques Lacan's
psychoanalytical project was that the history of
philosophy concealed the history of desire, and one of the
goals of his work was to show how desire is central to
philosophical thinking. In Lacan's Medievalism, Erin
Felicia Labbie demonstrates how Lacan's theory of desire
is bound to his reading of medieval texts. She not only
alters the relationship between psychoanalysis and
medieval studies, but also illuminates the ways that
premodern and postmodern epochs and ideologies share a
concern with the subject, the unconscious, and language,
thus challenging notions of strict epistemological cuts.
Lacan's psychoanalytic work contributes to the medieval
debate about universals by revealing how the unconscious
relates to the category of the real. By analyzing the
systematic adherence to dialectics and the idealization of
the hard sciences, Lacan's Medievalism asserts that we
must take into account the play of language and desire
within the unconscious and literature in order to
understand the way that we know things in the world and
the manner in which order is determined
