La procréation médicalement assistée est résultante d’une histoire embrouillée de stérilité, de désir d’enfant. Elle aurait de même ses répercussions sur le couple et l’enfant conçu par une dissociation entre l’acte sexuel parental et l’acte de procréation, par le fait d’avoir d’un coup trois triplés et par les embarras parentaux face à une situation inédite. Bien entendu le fantasme de scène primitive de cet enfant et dont dérivent les autres fantasmes : fantasme de séduction et fantasme de castration est sujet de recherches assidus : D’où je viens ? Comment j’ai été conçu ? Ce mode de conception où l’acte sexuel parental fait défaut influencerait directement la structur+ation œdipienne et l’organisation des fantasmes originaires de cet enfant ? Nous essaierons alors de repérer la fantasmatisation de cet enfant issu de la PMA, protocole FIV, et ses effets sur l’organisation œdipienne et naturellement à travers l’approche psychanalytique qui s’impose par l’étude de cas de 9 triplés (4 garçons et cinq filles ayant l’âge de la latence) issu de ce mode de procréation. Nous avons organisé notre étude de cas dans une démarche qui commence par le recueil des éléments anamnestiques et poursuivis par la passation de deux épreuves projectives: Family Aperception Test (FAT) et la Thematic Aperception Test (TAT). / The Medically Assisted Procreation results from a case complicated by sterility and the desire to have a child. It has its repercussions on the couple and the child conceived by dissociation between the parental sexual act and the procreation act, by the fact of having three triplets at once and the parents’ perplexity towards this all new situation. Of course this child’s primal scene fantasy which the other fantasies derive : seduction fantasy and the castration fantasy is the subject of assiduous researches: Where do I come from? How was I conceived? This mode of conception where the parental sexual act has failed will directly impact the oedipal structuration and organization of the original fantasies of the child. We will try to detect the fantasmatization of this child issued by the MAP and its effects of the oedipal organization and naturally through the psychoanalytical approach imposed throughout the case study of 9 triplets (4 boys and 5 girls of latency age) issued by this procreation mode. We organized our case study through a method that starts with the collection of anamnestic elements and continues after passing two projective tests: Family Aperception Test (FAT) and the Thematic Aperception Test (TAT).

: The construct of the ‘pre-oedipal’ paternal function, as distinct from the traditional ‘oedipal’ paternal function, is an important yet under-developed focus of study in both the field of infant development and psychoanalytic clinical practice. This thesis contributes towards the development of an integrated concept of the paternal function as well as to a deeper understanding of the different aspects of the construct and its application. A critical literature review of psychoanalytic literature on the ‘paternal function’ highlights an absence of recognition of the importance of the construct, as it is salient in the earliest period of infancy, and characterises it as fragmented and diversely understood when it is mentioned. Four aspects of the paternal function which appear to be the dominant aspects in the literature are identified and elaborated in some detail. Also noted is the tendency for the non-gendered nature of several aspects of the paternal function to be overlooked because of the regular conflation of the role of the father and the paternal function. Extending this theoretically based observation into the domain of therapeutic practice, the conceptualisations of the pre-oedipal paternal function and the extent to which it is employed as a clinical tool was garnered from a sample of self-identified psychoanalytic psychotherapists based in Johannesburg, South Africa. Interviews of the topic were conducted with eight experienced practitioners and subject to thematic analysis guided by existing theory. The findings articulated closely with the international literature which points to a nebulous understanding of the concept and a general absence of reference to it as relevant in clinical formulations. In addition, based on the interview data, some proposals as to why the paternal function poses such a definitional difficulty and why, furthermore, the paternal functionary is apparently persona non grata in the clinical setting, are discussed. Finally, the case for the usefulness of the pre-oedipal paternal function in clinical practice is elucidated through the discussion of four clinical cases, each addressing a particular aspect of the pre-oedipal paternal function. Based on both a critical review of the literature and empirical data in the form of interviews of psychotherapists, and case material, the thesis makes a cogent case for foregrounding and refining conceptual and applied understandings of the construct of the ‘pre-oedipal’ paternal function, highlighting the gendered and non gendered attributes associated with performance of a set of functions associated with the construct.

Na literatura psicológica, encontramos pesquisas realizadas com gêmeos visando estudar a influência de fatores genéticos versus ambientais na estruturação da personalidade e também no campo da psicopatologia. Entretanto, existem poucos relatos de pesquisas voltados para a interação intra-par de gêmeos e entre os gêmeos e seus cuidadores, especialmente em relação às questões edípicas. O fenômeno, tão estudado pela psicanálise, tem sido pouco investigado na vivência de situações triangulares entre os co-gêmeos e seus pais. O método de Observação Psicanalítica modelo Esther Bick inspirou o planejamento desta tese, que tem como objetivos: observar e descrever as relações objetais triangulares entre os gêmeos e seus pais durante o primeiro ano de vida; analisar a possibilidade de a triangulação edípica ocorrer prioritariamente entre o par de gêmeos; verificar se a \"presença real\" do co-gêmeo poderia exacerbar a vivência como \"terceiro excluído\" entre os gêmeos. Participaram cinco pares de gêmeos recém-nascidos e suas respectivas famílias, sendo dois pares masculinos(monozigoto e dizigoto), dois pares femininos (monozigoto e dizigoto) e um par de sexos diferentes. Foram realizadas visitas semanais com duração de uma hora cada, às residências dos gêmeos, durante o primeiro ano de vida, a fim de observar os gêmeos e seus cuidadores. A observadora pode presenciar o que se passava na relação intra-par de gêmeos, bem como entre os gêmeos e demais pessoas presentes. Após cada sessão de observação foi elaborado um relatório constando os comportamentos observados e as percepções da observadora em relação aos fatos. Foram estudados especialmente os seguintes fenômenos observados nas famílias de gêmeos: atendimento individual mãe-gêmeos; atendimento conjunto mãe-gêmeos; disputa de colo/atenção materna; atendimento pai-gêmeos; relacionamento intra-par de gêmeos. As relações triangulares envolvendo os co-gêmeos e seus pais foram analisadas, tendo como subsídio as teorias de Freud e Klein a respeito das questões edípicas. Foram percebidas quatro formas de relação triangular além do triângulo edípico filho-mãe-pai nas famílias estudadas. / In the psychological literature, we have found researches performed with twins where the aim was to study the influence of genetic factors versus environmental ones in the structuring of the personality and also in the field of the psychology. However, there are few reports of researches related to the twins\' intra-pair interaction and between the twins and their caretakers, especially in relation to the oedipal issues. The phenomenon, so studied by the psychoanalysis, has been little investigated in the experience of triangular situations between the co-twins and their parents. Esther Bick method of Psychoanalytic Observation model inspired the planning of this thesis, which has as its objectives: to observe and to describe the oppose triangular relationships between the twins and their parents during the first year of life; to analyze the possibility that the oedipal triangulation may happen essentially between the pair of twins; to verify if the \"real presence\" of the co-twin could exacerbate the existence as a \"third excluded\" between the twins. Five pairs of just born twins and their respective families participated in the study; among them we have two male pairs (monozygotic and dizygotic twins), two female pairs (monozygotic and dizygotic twins) and a pair of different sexes. Weekly visits were carried out with an hour duration each, to the twins\' residences, during the first year of life, in order to observe the twins and their caretakers. The observer could witness what happened in the twins\' intra-pair relationship, as well as between the twins and among the other people present. After each observation session a report was elaborated including the observed behaviors and the observer\'s perceptions related to the facts. The following observed phenomena were specially studied in the twins\' families: individual attendance mother-twin; pair attendance mother-twins; dispute of mother\'s holding/attention; father-twins attendance; twins\' intra-pair relationship. The triangular relationships involving the co-twins and their parents were analyzed, having as its subsidy Freud\'s and Klein\'s theories regarding to oedipal relations. It has been noticed four triangular relationship forms besides the triangle son-mother-father oedipal one in the studied families.

Irish male identity in James Joyce’s and Samuel Beckett’s novels shows evidence of abjection. The oppressive natures of the Church and State in Ireland contribute to abjection in some Irish men. Furthermore, the state of abject being can lead to masochistic practices. According to Julia Kristeva, abjection translates into a .conceptual space. that has its roots in the Freudian Oedipal complex. Kristeva, following Lacan, also points to the connection between abjection and language. Joyce.s character Stephen Dedalus and Beckett.s Molloy/Moran both utilize this conceptual space and language in the narrative provides clues to their abject states. Joyce.s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Ulysses show Stephen.s abjection through his feelings of separation from his fellow citizens as well as his status as an Irish Catholic. Like Stephen, Beckett.s protagonist Molloy/Moran endures abjection in terms of separation from the mother. Nevertheless, abjection by an oppressive social construct such as nationalism or religion is not as evident in Molloy. Although Beckett is an Irish author and Ireland is evident in the novel, Molloy/Moran is a universal character. He is abject by his own design . what Kristeva calls .self abjection. . in order to complete the search for the mother. Molloy/Moran.s search is also a search for the self as he reconciles with approaching death. This is similar to Stephen.s self-abjection but Stephen abjects himself in order to separate himself from his fellow Irishmen. Stephen.s concerns with death take on different ramifications, as Stephen is not at the same point in his life as Molloy/Moran. Death, for Stephen, is his mother.s death and the oppressive guilt she has instilled in him by her admonitions to repent. Masochism is a response to abjection. The age of modernism influenced Joyce.s writing, just as the shift from high modernism to postmodernism influenced Beckett.s. The Irish response to the changes attendant with modernization, both at the fin -de-siécle for Joyce and in the post- World War II years when Beckett wrote, is evident in Stephen Dedalus and Molloy/Moran. According to Suzanne R. Stewart, the turn of the century brought changes in culture through advertising and the advent of consumer capitalism and the bourgeois masculine status quo was threatened. Stewart argues that masochism is partly a masculine response to these changes. I argue that Stephen and Molloy/Moran reflect that response. The result of deferring or suspending either confrontation or resolution is pleasure, or jouissance as the term is used by Jacques Lacan and Julia Kristeva. Neither Joyce nor Beckett makes clear whether Stephen or Molloy/Moran achieve jouissance, effectively leaving the reader suspended, without resolution to the characters. stories. Abjection and masochism link Stephen and Molloy/Moran as symbols of unaccommodated man and are remarkable in that they reflect not only an Irish masculine identity but also a universal masculine identity at both the turn of the century and post- World War II.

Atualmente tem ocorrido diversas transformações nas famílias contemporâneas, e considerando que a passagem pela cena edípica possibilita a discriminação de lugares e funções familiares, entende-se que seja necessário compreender este conceito e suas vivências nas famílias atuais. Foi realizado um estudo de caso, com realização de entrevistas semi-estruturadas com dois casais, sendo o casal de avós que exerce as funções principais de cuidados com suas netas e o casal composto pela mãe biológica e o padrasto das meninas, que também participa do cotidiano familiar das crianças. Com as crianças, com 6 e 7 anos de idade, utilizamos o Procedimento de Desenhos de Família com Estórias (DF-E) de Walter Trinca, analisando as relações de amor, ódio, rivalidade, interdição e alianças inconscientes característicos de tal experiência. Verificou-se que o exercício da parentalidade é dividido e exercido pelos quatro participantes da entrevista, configurando uma vivência familiar atual em que os papéis parentais não estão delimitados de forma clara, porém para todos os membros da família, a avó representa a principal figura que exerce as funções materna e paterna diante das netas, com estabelecimento de alianças inconscientes e aspectos transgeracionais que configuraram a dinâmica familiar. Percebeu-se que as vivências dos pais e avós com suas próprias elaborações edípicas influenciam de forma significativa a experiência do Complexo de Édipo das crianças. Verificou-se que para que ocorra uma vivência edípica que permita uma triangulação das relações e a possibilidade de uma vida e relacionamentos autônomos ultrapassando as relações narcísicas e simbióticas iniciais realizadas com as figuras parentais, é necessária que seja exercida uma função diferenciadora, não limitada ao gênero ou filiação biológica, que permita o registro das diferenças e separação nas relações intersubjetivas. / The aim was to understand the exercise of parenting and subjectivation in contemporary families regarding to the Oedipus Complex experience, from Linkage Psychoanalysis Theory. Nowadays there has been different changes in contemporary families and considering that the passage through the oedipal scene allows the discrimination of places and family duties, it is understood that is necessary to comprehend this definition and its experiences in modern families. A case study has been carried out by semi – structured interviews with two couples, represented by the grandparents who fulfil the main nurture functions with their granddaughters, and the couple formed by the biological mother and the girls’ stepfather, who also takes part in the family everyday life of the children. With the children who are 6 and 7 years old, the Family Drawing – and – Story Procedure (DF-E) by Walter Trinca was applied, analyzing love relationships, hate, rivalry, interdiction and unconscious alliances typical from this experience. It was found that the exercise of parenting is shared and held by the four interviewees, constituting a new family experience in which the parental roles are not limited in a clear way, however for all family members, the grandmother represents the main figure that acts as a mother and a father to her granddaughters, setting up unconscious alliances and transgenerational aspects which have configured the family dynamics. It was noticed that the parents’ and grandparents’ experiences with their own oedipal elaborations influence in a meaningful way the Oedipus Complex’s experience in the children. It was observed that for an oedipal construction to happen which allows a relationship triangulation and the possibility of an existence and autonomous relationships overcoming the narcissistic and symbiotic first relationships with the parental figures, it’s necessary to be performed a distinctive role not limited to gender or biological paternity, which allows the record of the differences and the inter-subjective relations’ division

A presente dissertação tem como propósito estudar o que denominamos herói anti-existencialista do romance Angústia, de Graciliano Ramos, ao analisar sua dificuldade de auto-afirmação diante do mundo de que faz parte, a qual o conduzirá à ação central do livro, o assassinato de Julião Tavares. Escamoteando essa causa subjetiva dos afetos aparentes, os sentimentos de opressão e inferioridade, o protagonista irá atribuí-los ao exterior, à sua existência citadina, ao convívio com o outro, ao rival, Julião Tavares. A dificuldade de auto-afirmação causa de ordem subjetiva desses afetos aparentes , com origem no passado da infância, na não superada rivalidade edipiana, ameaça trazer a tona dois afetos latentes, que se revelam por meio da narrativa digressiva, enquanto forma de auto-análise, a saber: o medo da castração simbólica, e a culpa pelo desejo da morte do pai na infância. Daí a necessidade de escamoteá-la, atribuindo-se ao exterior, a uma causa de ordem objetiva, portanto, os sentimentos de opressão e inferioridade, o que engendrará a idéia de vingança, motivo aparente do assassinato. No ato de vingança estaria implicado um valor anacrônico, com origem na sociedade patriarcal, na qual vivera o menino Luís da silva, a saber: a prática da violência naturalizada, enquanto expressão do sentido arcaico da liberdade, a liberdade ilimitada. Nesse sentido, o caráter anti-existencialista do herói o levará para a livre escolha do assassinato, como forma imprópria de tentar superar os sentimentos de opressão e inferioridade, cuja conseqüência será o aniquilamento do seu ser, descaminho da sua liberdade. / This dissertation aims at studying the anti-existentialist hero in Angústia, a novel by Graciliano Ramos. In doing so, one analyzes the character´s difficulty of self-affirmation to the world in which he lives, and which will occasionally take him to the central action of the story, that is, the murder of Julião Tavares. As to hide the underlying causes of the apparent affections i.e., feelings of oppression and inferiority , the protagonist will tie them to exterior elements, such as the fact that he lives in town or to the fact that he lives with his enemy, Julião Tavares. The difficulty of self-affirmation is the cause for the underlying apparent affections and has its origins on his childhood, instead of being based on the surpassed oedipal rivalry. It risks bringing up two underlying affections shown up in the story by means of digressions in moments of self analysis done by the character. There are the fear of symbolic castration, end the guilty for wishing for his father´s death when he was a child. This is why he feels the need of hiding them and ties their existence to exterior reasons, to something objective, and this is why he feels inferior and oppressed. Ultimately, there are reasons that will make him wish for revenge and will also constitute the reasons for murder. There is an anachronistic value implied on such revenge, whose origin goes back to the patriarchal society in which the boy Luís da Silva lived: the common naturalized violence as an expression of the archaic sense of freedom an unlimited freedom. In this sense, the anti-existentialist trace of the hero will take him to the free will of murdering as an improper way trying to overcome the feeling of oppression and inferiority, whose consequence will be his own annihilation, a misleading of his freedom.
