The author emphasises a paternal function in Freud’s thought that has not been much explored by the reporter : the father in Freud’s thought is also the ‘seducer’ who carries the demand of a drive-related process that has to reach its end to be introjected. Once this is established, the entire question arises of knowing how to attain this first ideal and how to ‘survive’ the introjection of the drives, which will form the entire question of the relationship with the ‘real’ father. For that, he will have to ‘survive’ the murder of the father of the primal horde.
