JUSTO, Luis Pereira. Listen to odysseys. Ide (São Paulo) [online]. 2022, vol.44, n.73, pp.39-49. ISSN 0101-3106.

This text intends to encourage reflection on the urgency of creating discourses and meanings about the present, past and future life that permeates the life of human beings. There are milestones in this production that are here metaphorically associated with passages from the Odyssey. Metaphors are also vehicles for thinking critically about the power of meaning in listening to an interlocutor requested for this, who may be a psychoanalyst. Listening almost always implies interpreting. There are always pitfalls in this ceaseless process. The demarcation promoted by the emergence of Truth, while the limit of knowledge is placed above what can be true, provides the production of new and potentially richer narratives of the subject about himself and about the other, which can be an act of liberation.

Palavras-chave : listening; discourse; interpretation; making sense.
