Jacques Lacan introduced the notion of the "Name{{Topp}}Nom-ofdu-the-Father." By it he meant that every signifier, by its connection, not to an object, but rather to another signifier (Ferdinand de Saussure), symbolizes the lack that it introduces into being. As the particular symbolizer produces this effect while at the same time transforming it, the Name-of-the-Father enables human beings to tolerate and maintain desire. Without it, lack is experienced as a devouring force (cf. the case of Little Hans, Freud, 1909b) or a sucking force, the representation of a wound in the maternal body that is the source of a debt that can never be repaid.Père{{Bottom}}
The child discovers this name as a metaphor for ==Jacques Lacan=====Symbolic Father===When the enigmatic object desired by expression "[[Name-of-the mother in -Father|the body name of the child's father. Thus]]" first appeared in [[Lacan]]’s [[work]], in the child can find his way early 1950s, it is without [[capital]] letters and refers generally to one the '''legislative''' and '''prohibitive''' function of two ways of assuming for this phallus; he can either have it like the "'''[[symbolic]] [[father, or be it, ]]'''" as the one who lays down the [[taboo]] on [[incest]] in order to be desiredthe '''[[Oedipus complex]]'''.
The Oedipus complex makes <blockquote>"It is in the father the agent '[[Name-of -the prohibition that makes it the impossible to access the object-cause-Father|name of-desire. Lacanthe father]]'s structural analysis shows that we must recognize the father is not himself the guarantor support of the '''symbolic lawfunction''' which, from the dawn of [[history]], but is has [[identified]] his person with '''the one who authorizes desire. "[T[figure]]he true function of the Father law'''. . . is fundamentally to unite (and not to oppose) a desire to the Law," he wrote in "Subversion of the Subject and Dialectic of Desire" (Lacan, <ref>{{E}} p. 309).67</ref></blockquote>
In ===Legislative and Prohibitive Function===The rexpression is at once a semi-humorous [[religion|religious]] allusion and a play on the Other, near-homonyms '''''non''''' and '''''nom''''': the phallus thus no longer symbolizes a devouring agency, but instead one that rejoices if '''[[name-of-the subject experiences sexual enjoyment -father]]''' (jouissance'''''le nom du père''''') and procreates.

* Lacan, Jacques. (2002). The subversion of the subject and the dialectic of desire in the Freudian subconscious. In Écrits: A selection (Bruce Fink, Trans.). New York: Norton.   == def=Paternal MetaphorThe '''Name of the Father''' refers to the [[Law|laws]] and restrictions that control both [[desire]] and the rules of [[communication]], according to [[Lacan]].  The Name-of-the-Father is closely bound up with the [[superego]], the [[phallus]], the [[symbolic]] [[order]], and the [[oedipus complex]].  The [[Name-of-the-Father]] has a [[shadow double]] in the [[Father-of-Enjoyment]].   The [[Name of the Father]]' (Fr. ‘’Nom du père’’) , is the [[signifier]] associated with the [[signified]] [[concept]] of the [[father]]. The name of the Father is a [[symbolic]] formation.   == Prohibitive Function of the Symbolic Father ==The expression “the name of the father,” when it first appeared in Lacan’s work, in the early 1950s, referred generally to the “[[prohibition|prohibitive role]]” of the “[[symbolic]] [[father]]” as the one who lays down the [[incest]] [[taboo]] in the [[oedipus complex]]Image:NOTF<blockquote>“It is in the ‘name of the father’ that we must recognize the support of the symbolic function which, from the dawn of history, has identified his person with the figure of the law.”<ref>Lacan, Jacques. Écrits. p.67</ref></blockquote>  ===The “No” of the Father===In the French language, the expression “the name of the father” (“’’le nom du père’’”) is phonetically similar to the expression “the ‘no’ of the father” (“’’le ‘non’ du père’’”).Lacan plays on this similarity to emphasize the prohibitive function of the symbolic father (the ‘no’ of the [[incest]] [[taboo]]). ==The Psychoses==In ‘’[[The_psychosesgif|The Seminar, Book III: The Psychoses]]’’ the expression becomes capitalized and hyphenated. The [[Name-of-the-Father]] is now the [[fundamental signifier]] which permtis [[signification]] to proceed normally.This fundamental signifier both confers [[identity]] on the [[subject]] (insofar as it names him, positions him within the symbolic order, etc.) and signifies the [[oedipus complexthumb|oedipal]] [[prohibition]], the ‘no’ of the [[incest]] [[taboo]]. If this signifier is foreclosed (not included in the symbolic order), the result is [[psychosis]].Nevertheless, [[Jacques Lacan]] developed this concept with the ultimately unsuccessful aim of curing psychosis.  == Linguistics ==French [[psychoanalyst]] [[Jacques Lacan]] revised the [[oedipus complex]] in line with his [[structuralism404px|structuralist]] attempt to combine [[psychoanalysis]] and [[linguistics]].  Lacan claimed that, although the [[infant]] must come to [[identificationright|identify]] with the [[father]] (in order to participate in [[sexual relations]]), the infant could never ‘become’ the father (as this would imply sexual relations with the [[motherThe paternal metaphor]]).The position of the In [[fatheranother]] could never be held by the [[infant]]. Thus, through the dictates on the one hand to be the father and work on the other not to, the father is elevated to an [[idealpsychosis]].The [[father]] is no longer a [[biology|biological]] father, but a function of a father: the [[Name-of-the-Father]].    The same goes for the mother &mdash; Lacan no longer talks of a real mother, but simply of [[desire (Lacanian)|desire]], which is a desire to return to represents the undifferentiated state of ''being'' together with the mother, before the interference through the Name-of-the-Father. This desire necessarily lacks something, i.e. it is a desire of lack.   The father and accordingly the phallus (not a ''real'' penis, but a representation of [[masterOedipus complex]]y) can never be reached, thus he is above or outside the language system and cannot be spoken about. All language relies on this absence of the phallus from the system of [[signification]]. According to this theory, without a phallus ''outside'' of language, nothing 'as a 'in'' language would make sense or could be differentiated. Thus Lacan remodels the linguistic theory of Swiss linguist [[Ferdinand de Saussuremetaphor]]. It is this idea that forms the basis of much contemporary thought, especially [[poststructuralism]]. Nothing can be thought that is ''outside'(' of language, but the phallus ''is'' there and therefore structures the whole system of thought accordingly. Oedipus could also be thought of the theme of the story.  ==Freud vs Lacan== In ''[[Totem and Taboopaternal metaphor]]'''), in which one [[Sigmund Freudsignifier]] uses a theory of (the history, based on Darwin's [[theory Name-of evolution]], in which there was first a terrible father that -the brothers had to kill. Feeling guilty about it, the brothers began to pay homage to the father and founded [[monotheism-Father]]. In Lacan's theory, the learning of ) [[languagemetaphor|substitutes]] leads another (the child to kill his father as a [[symboldesire]]. Lacan does not use any historical theory. This concept allows a new understanding of the [[neurosismother]]).
