MENES, Martine. From myth to narrative, the inscription of the no/names of the name-of-the-father. Estilos clin. [online]. 2009, vol.14, n.27, pp.172-189. ISSN 1415-7128.

Civilization lives today the discontent of the father. This malaise is the degradation of the father, something which many attribute to the wanderings and the detours of modern subjectivities. The oedipal father, from his most humiliated version to that of the domestic tyrant, manufactured the generalized neurosis where Freud found the roots of his theory. What does psychoanalysis propose today to read the discontent of our current civilization? Lacan readdresses the question of the paternal function to underscore the essential: the principle of separation (castration) and identification (naming). This orientation finds different clinical applications, of which we will underscore here an example in groups of teenagers which are in a state of symbolic wandering.

Palabras clave : oedipal father; paternal function; civilization; identification; teenagers.
