As the “negative Oedipus Complex”, the Orestes Complex is little known. Orestes’s matricide is not only the opposition of Oedipus’s mother fixation, but also reflects the reflection and transcendence of Oedipus complex. On the basis of tracing the origin of Orestes Complex, this paper takes the autobiographical novel Viper in the Fist by French writer Hervé Bazin as an example to demonstrate As the “negative Oedipus Complex”, the Orestes Complex is little known.

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 t

Representations of Sigmund Freud in early 21st century US American novels rely on and respond to the image of Freud that emerged from investigations by Paul Roazen (Brother Animal, 1969) and Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson (The Assault on Truth, 1984), which cast doubt on the validity of the Oedipus complex. Relying on Roazen, Brenda Webster's Vienna Triangle ( 2009 ) links Freud's oedipal thinking to paranoia and male masochism. Working with Masson, Selden Edwards's The Little Book ( 2008 ) takes Freud to task for abandoning the seduction theory in favour of the Oedipus complex. Jed Rubenfeld's The

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 op

The Oedipus complex of Freud is based on the inevitability of the tragic fate of a man who fled his home to escape the prophecy of parricide. Thus, he fulfilled it by killing a stranger who proved to be his father.

Where Freud looks to the son, however, I look to the father, who set the tragedy in motion by attempting to murder his infant son.

&lt;p&gt;Oedipus Rex, one of the three famed Theban tragedies by the Greek dramatist Sophocles, vividly portrays the complex and often troubling theme of humanity’s relationship to fate. By detailing the way in which Oedipus, king of Thebes, is reduced by the cruelty of predestination into a puppet with no semblance of control over the course of his own life, Sophocles seems to cast doubt on, not only the effectiveness, but also the meaning of self-control. Thus, freedom of choice, humanity’s final assertion of independence, appears to dissolve into hollow mockery. But even then, Sophocles con
