structure of psychosis as a result of the forclusion of the father-name

Abstract

This research is the result of the theoretical journey carried out during the first moment of the teaching of Jaques Lacan, during the years 1955 to 1958. The objective of the same is to explain the structure of psychosis as a consequence of the foreclosure of the Significant name-of-the-Father. This approach allows to understand the subjective consequences of forclusion, in a psychotic subject and grants the possibility of finding the guidelines for a treatment, according to this period of Lacanian teaching.
