Abstract
JARAMILLO CARUSO DE AZEVEDO, Luciana. Transgenerationality, Family and Origin: a Preliminary Essay on the Pathologies of Inheritance. CES Psicol [online]. 2022, vol.15, n.1, pp.201-216. Epub May 25, 2022. ISSN 2011-3080. https://doi.org/10.21615/cesp.5844.
The main objective of this theoretical study is to articulate the notions of transgenerationality, family and origin, which are essential elements for understanding the psychic constitution. This outline constitutes a preliminary study of the pathologies of inheritance. One of the forms of transgenerational psychic transmission, or better, of transgenerationality, can be observed as a repetition through generations that is configured by the insistence of the signifying chain. The unconscious, as a trans-individual device and structured as a language, unveils the original fantasy prior to its own existence. If desire is the desire of the Other, the importance of the inflections made by the parental Other in children's discourse could not be more complete. Ancestral experiences find unconscious channels of transmission that, the less recognized the signifier, the more it will persist through generations. It is the symbolic references that allow the establishment of the difference in places between generations in the affiliation chain. These weak points when expressed in terms of symptoms seem to indicate an impossibility of representation.
