Abstract

The article presents and discusses the concepts of paternal and fraternal function based on the reading and interpretation of Freud's work and some of his interpreters. Its objective is to demonstrate the complementary relationship between these functions and their possible reception in education through the association with the notions of heteronomy and autonomy that historically guided it. Despite the specificities that characterize the paternal and fraternal functions, both are supported by the same foundation, namely: that it is from the tie with those who arrived before and, therefore, with similar ones, that the subject can give a singular destiny to his subjectivity and, at the same time, collectively reframe the inherited world.
