The encounter with French structuralism and, above all, with structural linguistics gave new and powerful impulses to postwar psychoanalysis. This reorientation, which is both a return to Freud and a revision of his texts, is closely linked to the psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan and his school. The theory developed within its framework not only had a decisive, though not undeniable, impact on the theory and practice of clinical psychoanalysis, but also opened up new perspectives on cultural and social phenomena in the context of unconscious semantic, semantic and motivational interrelationships. The work "Lacan. An Introduction to Structural Psychoanalysis" by the famous Austrian psychiatrist and psychoanalyst August Rous offers a detailed examination of the basic concepts of Lacanian doctrine and can serve as an excellent starting point for getting acquainted with the ideas of this prominent French psychoanalyst.
