    1. According toLacan, then, neither psychoanalytic orthodoxy nor academicpsychology recognizes a difference in principle between knowl-edge (psychic life) and the truth by which it is driven onward(the reality to which psychic life must adapt itself)

      Thus Lacan introduces the divide between the real and reality. Hegel and ego psychoanalysis assume that knowledge (the consciousness) and truth can always coincide and have an affinity for each other

    2. ave they in fact shakenthe self-conception of the subject as fundamentally as Freudwould have it? Thus has Darwinism, for example, really freedhumanity from its belief that it holds a central position in real-ity? How could it, when Darwin places man at the top of theevolutionary pyramid?)

      This is the challenge: Lacan challenges the claim that the third part of the Copernican revolution, the claim that the subject is self-consciousness is more believed now than before or even at the same -- that the self continues to think so?
