Sumario:This paper aims to understand how Giorgio Agamben dialogues with psychoanalysis (especially with Lacan’s work) to support his understanding of the human as an indiscernible zone between nature and culture. To do so, we will exhibit two subjects developed by Agamben: 1) the relation between the concept of in-fancy and Lacan’s notion of the unconscious, and 2) the definition of the symbolic in its relation to the psychoanalytical conception of sign. This will lead us, at the end, to a reflection about the symbolic/diabolic character of language supported by Agamben’s understanding of the platonic concepts of daímōn and Eros.
