This groundbreaking book explores the intersection of psychoanalysis and linguistics, offering a fresh perspective on how unconscious cognition shapes linguistic activity. Thomas Paul Bonfiglio demonstrates how psychoanalytic mechanisms—such as displacement, condensation, overdetermination, and repetition—have been largely overlooked in linguistic research, and shows how they can provide new insights into language structure, evolution, acquisition, and processing. Challenging popular misconceptions of psychoanalysis, Bonfiglio proposes a novel theoretical framework for understanding language, setting the stage for future research and teaching. This book will be an essential resource for advanced students and scholars in theoretical and applied linguistics, cognitive-behavioural sciences, metaphor studies, humour studies, play theory, anthropology, and related fields, offering a fascinating new lens through which to study language.

Thomas Paul Bonfiglio is Professor of Literature and Linguistics, William Judson Gaines Chair in Modern Foreign Languages, and Coordinator of the Linguistics program at the University of Richmond, USA. He has written a number of books, including The Psychopathology of American Capitalism; Why is English Literature?: Language and Letters for the Twenty-First Century; Mother Tongues and Nations: The Invention of the Native Speaker; and Race and the Rise of Standard American.
