lacaniano
Referring to the thought of the prominent French psychoanalyst and theorist Jacques Lacan, who postulated a distinction between experience that is 'imaginary'—associated with the 'gaze' of an active spectator, characterised as being motivated by desire—and 'symbolic' - an area of experience that is approached through language. He had a strong influence on Postmodernism.
