ABSTRACT

Gottlob Frege was a German philosopher best known for his academic work in the philosophy of language and mathematics. Jacques Lacan was a French psychoanalyst, and something of a Freudian disciple, who presented some innovative theories on structural linguistics; the gist of which can be concluded through one of his most famous quotes 'the unconscious is structured as a language'. In order to design a meta-model of the mind, the interaction between the conscious part with its deductive logical reasoning with a truncated view of reality and the unconscious part with its own set of logic becomes the key challenge. But the unconscious also works to over time shift the boundaries of social reality, which changes the content out of which the conscious part of the mind bases its rational decisions through recalibrating the social reality. The main tenet of gestalt psychology is that the mind through structures and principles seeks to form holistic perspectives out of independent parts.
