==Jacques Lacan==
[[Jacques Lacan]] begins to use [[algebraic]] [[symbol]]s in 1955 -- in an attempt to [[formalise]] [[psychoanalysis]].
===Formalization of Psychoanalysis===
:Rather than being understood in an intuitive way, the [[algebraic]] [[symbols]] are to be used, manipulated and read in various different ways.<ref>{{E}} p.313</ref>
The [[algebraic]] [[symbol]]s used by [[Lacan]] appear principally in the [[matheme]]s, [[schema l]] and the [[graph of desire]].
