This article intends to demonstrate the strategic importance of Foucault’s readings of Saint
Augustine. Said importance is inscribed within Foucault’s project of writing a “genealogy of
the subject of desire”, aiming at the understanding of the reasons why the concept of “de sire” started to play such a central role within the topic of sexuality, in such a way that be tween subject, desire, sexuality, and truth, a necessary and indissoluble bond seemed to be
established. In this perspective, we understand that such a genealogy of the subject of desire
demands that we critically rethink the history of psychoanalysis, especially in its Freudian Lacanian version, the only for the which, in fact, he was interested with more frequency. |
