Wikipedia

Lacan thought that Freud’s ideas of “slips of the tongue,” jokes, and the interpretation of dreams all emphasized the agency of language in subjective constitution…he proposes that “the unconscious is structured like a language.” The unconscious is not a primitive or archetypal part of the mind separate from the conscious, linguistic ego, he explained, but rather a formation as complex and structurally sophisticated as consciousness itself.
