Abstract:
TERRY EAGLETONhas suggested that “the mid-nineteenth century bourgeois state had problems in resolving its Oedipus complex” (76). Eagleton's semi-serious remark certainly holds true for nineteenth-century British culture, which, while supposedly patriarchal in its political structures, features a great number of significant literary narratives in which the paternal parent is either missing, dead, or never mentioned. The poems of Alfred, Lord Tennyson, are no exception. Gerhard Joseph, Christopher Ricks, and Linda Shires, among others, turn to Freudian psychoanalysis, the Oedipal complex, and Freud's seminal essay “Mourning and Melancholia” for insight into why so many father figures are absent from Tennyson's work. Yet neither the Oedipus complex nor “melancholia” accounts for how these father figures, while literally absent, are nevertheless present and influential. Another model is needed to describe the relationship between Tennyson, the missing paternal figures of his narratives, and the age that he has come to represent.

The review of relevant psychoanalytic literature has clarified that the Oedipus complex is considered to be resolved through symbolic castration and symbolic parricide. The author then reviewed the Chinese research papers, and proposed the hypothesis that the Oedipus complex is not absolutely resolved under Chinese culture at the level of symbolism.

Abstract:
Abstract In contrast to previous attempts to establish a direct relation between Freud and Kabbalah, this article argues for an indirect relationship mediated by way of Schelling’s philosophy. My claim is that Freud’s Oedipus complex partly originated in Schelling’s idea of God’s contraction, which he arguably derived from the Lurianic doctrine of zimzum. Furthermore, in thinking of the oedipal complex, and of repression more generally, as a late development of the Lurianic and Schellingian imagination of what I call “productive negativity,” I suggest that an important conceptual horizon is opened for the Freudian concept, one that transcends the widespread but narrow formulation of repression as a retroactive and regressive mental mechanism.

Abstract:
With the acceleration of interdisciplinary studies, naming discoveries inspired by different fields has become widespread at the same speed. In this study, it is emphasized that the diseases or syndromes defined in psychology are named after the myths in the circle of literature and history, but this naming causes those who do not know the myths to misunderstand and misinterpret the character in the myth. In addition, it has been emphasized that the inspired myth may actually have been misinterpreted based on the life story of the name maker. Sophocles' Oedipus the King is one of the myths in which his character is misdiagnosed. Freud chose Oedipus as the name of the syndrome he discovered because it reflects his own life story, but there is a big difference between what Freud felt consciously and the fate that Oedipus lived without even being aware of it. To be able to eliminate this misfortune that has happened to other myths like this, requires mastering the whole story before choosing the myths that are the source of inspiration in naming diseases.

Abstract:
Resumo: O Complexo de Édipo é um processo constitutivo de todo sujeito, por meio do qual será desenvolvida sua estruturação psíquica, já que o conflito edipiano fica registrado no inconsciente de toda criança e persiste até o fim da vida. Vale lembrar que ao longo de seu desenvolvimento, o ego da criança vai sendo preparado para a castração por meio das diversas perdas que vai sofrendo, como o ventre da mãe, o seio materno e suas próprias fezes, surge então à ansiedade de castração que é justamente o medo de ser separado de um objeto valioso. O ensaio que se inscreve através de uma revisão bibliográfica visa discorrer sobre o Complexo de Édipo e a castração como aspectos atinentes a constituição do sujeito. A pesquisa trata-se de um estudo de natureza bibliográfica, com uma abordagem qualitativa e de cunho exploratório. Compreendemos através da pesquisa que o Complexo de Édipo assim como a castração tem sido cada vez mais pesquisado, no entanto, o que se percebe é que muitos estudos têm abordado esta temática sobre várias perspectivas, mas o que chama atenção é que ainda notam-se muitas divergências quanto ao assunto. Destarte, para nós da psicanálise é muito importante compreender esses conceitos fundamentais que foram nos colocado não só de compreensão por meio da psicanálise e através da ideia de Freud mais também por teóricos como Lacan que fez um retorno ao trabalho de Freud.Palavras-chave: Psicanálise; Complexo de Édipo. Castração; Criança. Abstract: The Oedipus Complex is a constitutive process of every subject, through which its psychic structure will be developed since the oedipal conflict is registered in the unconscious of every child and persists until the end of life. It is worth remembering that throughout its development, the child's ego is being prepared for castration through the various losses it suffers, such as the mother's womb, the mother's breast, and her own feces, then the castration anxiety that is just the fear of being separated from a valuable object. The essay that is inscribed through a literature review aims to discuss the Oedipus Complex and castration as aspects related to the constitution of the subject. The research is a bibliographical study, with a qualitative and exploratory approach. We understand through the research that the Oedipus Complex as well as castration has been increasingly researched, however, what is perceived is that many studies have addressed this issue from various perspectives, but what draws attention is that it is still noticed. many disagreements on the subject. Thus, for us in psychoanalysis it is very important to understand these fundamental concepts that were brought to us not only through psychoanalysis and through Freud's idea, but also by theorists such as Lacan who made a return to Freud's work. Keywords: Psychoanalysis. Oedipus complex. Castration. Kid.

Abstract:
Dramaturgical analysis brings together theoretical issues of hermeneutics, text analysis and performance theory with practical, creative work in the theatre. It is a complex, heterogeneous activity connecting research and practice and is designed to reflect on, as well as to develop and enhance, creative work in the theatre. The aim of dramaturgical analysis, as it is examined here, is to open up new dimensions for productions of classical texts, by trying to illuminate these texts from new and innovative perspectives and laying the basis for integrative scenic images that can later be developed for the actual stage interpretation of this text. This article addresses some of the issues concerning dramaturgical analysis by examining the process that led up to a production of Sophocles' Oedipus Tyrannos where the author worked with the Swedish director Leif Stinnerbom, the artistic director of the small and highly respected Västanå Theatre located in the Swedish province of Värmland. The Oedipus Tyrannos production analysed here was performed at the Odense municipal theatre in Denmark in 1999, where Stinnerbom was invited as a guest director.

Wilhelm Fliess, a Berlin nose and throat surgeon, and Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis, collaborated to treat one of Freud's earliest patients, Emma Eckstein. The basis for the treatment was their belief in the “Nasogenital Reflex,” a widely accepted theory that has disappeared from the literature of otolaryngology. The outcome of Emma's treatment may have profoundly altered the history of psychiatry, by suggesting the role of the unconscious and the existence of the Oedipus complex.

As a reaction to this, he suffers from mental conflict. Innovations are being created in Tamil focusing on this art. In this way, Kanmani Gunasekaran has become a remarkable person for creating novels that contain the miseries found in society.

Abstract:
Although Freud's ‘Family Romances’ from 1909 is hardly ever discussed at length in secondary literature, this article highlights this short essay as an important and informative text about Freud's changing perspectives on sexuality in the period in which the text was written. Given the fact that Freud, in his 1905 Three Essays, develops a radical theory of infantile sexuality as polymorphously perverse and as autoerotic pleasure, we argue that ‘Family Romances’, together with the closely related essay on infantile sexual theories (1908), paves the way for new theories of sexuality defined in terms of object relations informed by knowledge of sexual difference. ‘Family Romances’, in other words, preludes the introduction of the Oedipus complex, but also – interestingly – gives room for a Jungian view of sexuality and sexual phantasy. ‘Family Romances’ is thus a good illustration of the complex way in which Freud's theories of sexuality developed through time.

Abstract:
My focus is evidence. I understand this concept to be the marshalling of facts (data, etc.) in support of some position. This might be a district attorney presenting evidence to a jury that O. J. is guilty, or a literary critic arguing that Hamlet suffered from an Oedipus complex. But what is the logical connection between the relevant facts and the position they are being used to defend? How are we to distinguish successful cases of the marshalling of evidence – good arguments – from unsuccessful cases – weak arguments? I defend what I take to be a very commonsensical and pedagogically useful theory of [good] evidence. I argue that this view, inference to the best explanation, captures most, if not all, appeals to evidence in everyday contexts, as well as quite specialized domains like science, detective reasoning, and criminal and civil evidence. It also nicely encapsulates the sort of evidence that jurists and critics marshal in defense of particular readings of legal and literary texts. Appeals to evidence in the complicated worlds of teenage romance, detective fiction, criminal law, literary interpretation, and constitutional law all nicely fit the structure and evaluative methodology of inference to the best explanation. But only the diagnoses of lipstick stains, murder victims and bloody gloves can be held to the standards of correspondence and metaphysical realism. Literary and constitutional texts can be explained, and can be better or worse explained, but the truth or falsity of these interpretations is firmly in the realm of the coherence theory.

Abstract:
Art does not deceive its readers with an illusion of reality, as the common-sense notion has it, but rather pretends to deceive them. For the communicative power of the work of art lies precisely in the fact that we recognise its artificiality, its status as a work within a given genre, following certain conventions, set in a particular frame. What the work really points to, beyond the page, is the existence and actions of a creative consciousness, as that consciousness works through a given set of symbols to express itself. For reading is all about experiencing another’s mind. In the lack. Which makes it a matter of desire. My purpose in the following is to use literature to crack open the everyday, to write about neurosis and psychosis, how they write their way into the real world around us, the dinner table, this novel, a Greek tragedy, I mean Oedipus complex.

Abstract It is a consequence that many women are unaware or are not able to identify the emotional consequences of menopause. It is likely that this ignorance must be associated with factors which, in fact, aggravate their physical and emotional state. Emotional manifestations are controversial and scarce in the psychoanalytic literature, a fact that motivates a deeper exploration of the theme. A literature review was carried out, examining books by authors of psychoanalysis that address this subject in a part of their work, among which we mention Freud and Laznik. This article contemplated some hypotheses about the psychic factors that could arise during the menopause phase. The influence of the Oedipus complex and the incestuous ghosts that may appear in some women during this period was discussed, in addition to the question of women facing their finitude. It also raised the importance of the look of another on a woman who experiences menopause and how it can be restorative and fundamental for her narcissism. It should be noted that the menopause process will take place in a singular way according to each experience and with the different ways each woman has to deal with a new situation.

Purpose: To conduct a theoretical and empirical study of the formation of female identity and its role in solving infertility issues in conjunction with the cultural characteristics of modern society.
 Abstract: The article raises the issues of a set of views on the causes of the phenomenon of infertility and the formation of the function of motherhood as a result of the parental role and upbringing of the girl, her gender role identification and identity
 Сonclusion: Using clinical experience and the analysis of the literature, I would like to summarize this work and draw conclusions on the issue of studying the formation of female identity and its role in the problem of our time - infertility, given the totality of cultural characteristics and modern views on the issue of motherhood. One of the most important tasks facing a person is the search for the meaning of life, and identity crises (motherhood can be seen as a manifestation of a woman’s identity crisis) are a powerful catalyst for this search. When approaching the concept of female identity, we are faced with such a concept as the "Oedipus complex". It is what forms the unconscious core of any neurosis, and all other complexes and fantasies revolve around him. As a rule, in women with functional infertility, the "Oedipus" situation is not quite ordinary: mother plays the role of father. The father in such families is weak and is not included in the processes of raising children in the family. A weak man in the childhood of a girl leaves an imprint on an unconscious level. This imprint does not allow her to be fertile in adulthood. Formed, female identity goes through a number of stages: early childhood, as the time of formation of the core of sexual identity; time of triadic relationships (Oedipus complex) and the beginning of sexual orientation; time of practice of a sexual role (latent period); the time of choosing an object, the consolidation of female traits of gender, sexual role and sexual-partner orientation; the time of the final formation of femininity is motherhood. The semantic organization of the gender identity of women with psychogenic infertility is characterized by internal conflict in the perception of oneself as a woman and the characteristics of gender role identification. The resolution of the internal conflict of "identification-differentiation" with her mother is a prerequisite for the formation of a mature sexual identity of a woman. Studies of deviant maternal relationships, conducted in a psychoanalytic manner, allow us to talk about personal predispositions to psychogenic infertility and rejection of your own child - infantility, self-centeredness, increased aggressiveness, which are rooted in childhood traumatic experiences related to sexuality. The nature of the future maternal relationship depends on the experience of interacting with her own mother in childhood, how the mother treated her pregnancy and childbirth and how much she managed to solve the problem of separation from the parent family and build her own identity.

Abstract:
The history of each human chromosome can be studied through comparative cytogenetic approaches in mammals which permit the identification of human chromosomal homologies and rearrangements between species. Comparative banding, chromosome painting, Bacterial Artificial Chromosome (BAC) mapping and genome data permit researchers to formulate hypotheses about ancestral chromosome forms. Human chromosome 13 has been previously shown to be conserved as a single syntenic element in the Ancestral Primate Karyotype; in this context, in order to study and verify the conservation of primate chromosomes homologous to human chromosome 13, we mapped a selected set of BAC probes in three platyrrhine species, characterised by a high level of rearrangements, using fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH). Our mapping data on Saguinus oedipus, Callithrix argentata and Alouatta belzebul provide insight into synteny of human chromosome 13 evolution in a comparative perspective among primate species, showing rearrangements across taxa. Furthermore, in a wider perspective, we have revised previous cytogenomic literature data on chromosome 13 evolution in eutherian mammals, showing a complex origin of the eutherian mammal ancestral karyotype which has still not been completely clarified. Moreover, we analysed biomedical aspects (the OMIM and Mitelman databases) regarding human chromosome 13, showing that this autosome is characterised by a certain level of plasticity that has been implicated in many human cancers and diseases.

Abstract:
Modern Arab theory is based on the evocation of contextual occidental approaches that are out of text. Here, signs of critical modernity began in the reading of traditional Arabic texts, and one of the most important texts around which the readings revolved was the text of Abu Nawas, symbol of textual modernity for Arabs, as demonstrated by Adonis. This research paper seeks to find the balance between the two Arab readings that invoked the psychological approach to enlighten the text of Abu Nawas, the reading of Abbas Mahmoud Al-Akkad marked "Abu Nawas Al-Hassan Bin Hani", which is famous for studying biography and genius in which the personality key was followed as a tool from which it can penetrate into its depth and thought, and the study of Muhammad Al-Nohi’s “The Psychology of Abu Nawas”, which is a unique modern critic in his critical view, began to define literature as «the supreme fruit of the experiences of human life», his study preceded Akkad’s study by nine months, and both were in the same year 1953, This justifies the legitimacy of the balance between them on the one hand, and calls for an examination of the effects of comparison within the Arab critical theory, which has been influenced by Western theories, and which are given by the Freudian incubator. The comparison that the intervention intends to make is descriptive speech (meta critical). As for the problem posed by the research paper, consists in: What are the paradoxes that a single psychological approach poses to the multiplicity of readers and to the unity of the method? Al-Akkad relied on the dictum of narcissism to decompose Abu Nawas’s personality, and psychologists took this word (narcissism) to denote the associated bodily discomfort and sexual lust, and to signify a person’s infatuation with his body and desire for sexual lust, he feels like an image of himself, which completes his composition and all the imperfections he feels, according to Shawqi Deif. Based on the complex of narcissism, Al-Akkad explained the manifestations of the complex in what was called Autoimmune and self-envy, while Al-Noaihi went to the complex of Oedipus and inferred it with textual evidence under the name: the sexual replacement of a mother with wine and the sublimation expressed in the poetic work. We note here that the Arab critical theory stopped with these two writers, and that it did not use the developments of the psychological structural approach as presented by Jacque Lacan, his works not yet being translated into Arabic ‎.

Abstract:
AbstractThe present paper aims to shed light on some post-oedipal moments of the Freudian-Lacanian psychoanalysis. Going beyond the stereotypical opposition between the oedipal psychoanalysis and the anti-oedipal schizoanalysis, it endeavors to reinvestigate the semiotic nature of the knotenpunkt and the sinthome by applying some Deleuzian and Bakhtinian concepts. Thus, the knotenpunkt is described as a grotesque knot bringing together some heterogeneous elements. The involved disparate components establish a rhizomatic multiplicity irreducible to a common determiner. As far as the sinthome is concerned, it is also illustrated as a grotesque knot quilting the disseminated heterogeneous orders. In contrast to the dominant conception of the symptom with a complex mode of signifying (that is mainly bound to the oedipal topography), the knotenpunkt and the sinthome hold a kind of hyper-formative mode of signifying. As a result, the latter may be regarded as pure formators irreducible to a meaning or a certain interpretation. Finally, the paper sets out to analyze and evaluate the relationship between the sinthome and the foreclosure from a semiotic perspective. Accordingly, the sinthome is explained as a reply to foreclosure which is specifically a perceptive-imperative (retroactive) contemplation (in the light of law according to the Peircean phaneroscopy) on the rhizomatic multiplicity of psychosis (the case of schizophrenia).

Abstract:
Abstract What a survey of contemporary British drama reveals is a plethora of plays concerned not only with psychological and medical issues, but with precarious individuals, whose symptomatic condition is presented in terms of schizophrenia or schizoid states. Duncan Macmillan’s People, Places and Things (2015) can be considered as a distinctive play in this trend, where not only a rehabilitation center features as its setting, but its main character is afflicted with a complex cluster of symptoms: a schizoid personality, addiction, melancholic loss, and Oedipal tension with parents. Taking People, Places and Things as its focal point, and situating its arguments in the context of “Therapy Culture” (Furedi), this article demonstrates that what distinguishes Macmillan’s approach is his deconstructive understanding of the aporias besetting three chief spheres of human action, cognition, and affection: the epistemological, ontological and moral position of (1) his own art/work and its methods/techniques, (2) the (psycho-)therapeutic disciplines and institutes, (3) contemporary social-cultural discourse and political hegemony. Scrutinizing Macmillan’s treatment of the foregoing triad, it will be argued how his method can be characterized in two terms: symptomatic-symptomatological and critical-clinical.

Abstract:
This article relies on psychoanalytic theory and technique to examine the dynamics of a couple with a sexual aversion disorder in one partner and to provide treatment. It uses the language of object relations, including Ogden’s (1989a,b) reformulation of Freud’s notions about the oedipal complex. In doing so, it defies the popular trend in sex therapy to employ behavioural methods, as well as the less commonly used approach to integrate psychoanalytic with behavioural techniques. The outcome supports the prospect of psychoanalytically oriented therapists reclaiming sexual difficulties as entities that are within the domain of their clinical expertise. Additionally, it adds to the literature on sexual desire disorders and because the partner, in this case, who presents with the sexual problem is male, it counters commonly held myths about male sexuality and recognises the complexity of their sexual functioning.

Abstract:
Freud's path to the Oedipus complex reveals conceptual inconsistencies. These uncertainties concern fathers, brothers and sons, and the place of the oedipal triad within the family romance. Freud's uncovering of the Oedipus complex emerged, in large part, from his self-analyis of his childhood years in Freiberg. Freud's father was 20 years older than his third wife, and had two adult sons, all of whom lived in Freiberg. In 1897, when Freud announces the Oedipus complex, he stresses his love of his mother and jealousy of his father. Yet in 1924 Freud wrote that his adult brother, Philipp, had taken his father's place as the child's rival. The oedipal complex alters if there are four players rather than three. Freud's concept of an oedipal triangle does not adequately explain the psychological dynamics of his childhood. Fuller conceptual clarity would occur if the dynamics of the Oedipus complex were placed within the family context in which it unfolds.
