==Jacques Lacan==
===Symbolic Father===
When the expression "[[Name-of-the-Father|the name of the father]]" first appeared in [[Lacan]]’s [[work]], in the early 1950s, it is without [[capital]] letters and refers generally to the '''legislative''' and '''prohibitive''' function of the "'''[[symbolic]] [[father]]'''" as the one who lays down the [[taboo]] on [[incest]] in the '''[[Oedipus complex]]'''.
The expression <blockquote>"the name of the father," when it first appeared in Lacan’s work, It is in the early 1950s, referred generally to the "'[[prohibitionName-of-the-Father|prohibitive role]]" name of the "[[symbolic]] [[father]]" as ' that we must recognize the one who lays down support of the '''symbolic function''' which, from the dawn of [[incesthistory]] , has [[tabooidentified]] in his person with '''the [[Pedipus complexfigure]]of the law'''."<ref>{{E}} p.67</ref></blockquote>
<blockquote>"It ===Legislative and Prohibitive Function===The rexpression is in at once a semi-humorous [[religion|religious]] allusion and a play on the near-homonyms '''''non''''' and '''''nom''''': the '''[[name -of -the -father]]''' ('''''le nom du père''''') is also the [[father]]'s "'''no'''" ('''' that we must recognize 'le "non" du père''''') to the support of [[child]]'s [[incest]]uous '''[[desire]]''' for its '''[[mother]]'''. (the symbolic '''[[law|legislative and prohibitive function which, from the dawn ]]''' of history, has identified his person with the figure of the law."<ref>{{E}} p.67</ref></blockquote> '''[[symbolic]] [[father]]''')
===Fundamental Signifier===
In [[Lacan]]'s 1955-6 [[seminar]], [[The Psychoses]], the expression becomes capitalized and hyphenated and takes on a more precise [[meaning]]; the [[Name-of-the-Father]] is described as the '''[[fundamental signifier]]''' which permits '''[[signification]]''' to proceed normally.
The [[Name-of-the-Father]] both confers [[identity]] on [[human]] [[subject]]s (by situating [[them]] in a lineage and the [[symbolic]] [[order]]), and [[signification|signifies]] the '''[[Oedipus complex|Oedipal]] [[law|prohibition]]''', the ''''no'''' of the [[incest]] [[taboo]].
===Foreclosure===
The [[foreclosure]] of this [[fundamental signifier]], or its [[expulsion]] from the [[subject]]'s [[symbolic|symbolic universe]], is said by [[Lacan]] to be the [[mechanism]] that triggers '''[[psychosis]]'''.
From the beginning ===Paternal Metaphor===[[Image:NOTF.gif|thumb|404px|right|The paternal metaphor]]In [[another]] work on [[psychosis]], [[Lacan]] plays on represents the homophony of ''le nom du père'[[Oedipus complex]]''' (the name of the father) and as a ''le 'non[[metaphor]]' du père'' (the 'no' of the father'[[paternal metaphor]]'''), to emphasize in which one [[signifier]] (the legislative and prohibitive function [[Name-of -the -Father]]) [[symbolicmetaphor|substitutes]] another (the [[fatherdesire]]of the [[mother]]).
