“La persona umana-relazionale”: Possibile dialogo tra la triade di Jacques Lacan e l’ontologia trinitaria

The present study deals with the term desire (desiderio, Wunsch) in Jacques Lacan’s psychoanalytic approach and aims to find common intersections with Klaus Hemmerle’s vision of Trinitarian ontology. For modern psychology, desire as a constitutive element of the human person is a criterion that distinguishes the human person from the animal. Extinguishing desire in the human person brings many problems in society. If a person wants to fulfill desire that has a relational character with material things, he or she becomes frustrated. Both Jacques Lacan and Klaus Hemmerle have developed the issue of the desire of the human person in their approaches and thus offer certain solutions to the problem of the extinction of desire in the human person.
