Rachel Bowlby, Freudian Mythologies: Greek Tragedy and Modern Identities

More than a hundred years ago, Freud made a new mythology by revising an old one: Oedipus, in Sophocles’ tragedy the legendary perpetrator of shocking crimes, was an Everyman whose story of incest and parricide represented the fulfillment of universal and long forgotten childhood wishes. The Oedipus complex–child, mother, father–suited the nuclear families of the mid-twentieth century. But a century after the arrival of the psychoanalytic Oedipus, it might seem that modern lives are very much changed. Typical family formations and norms of sexual attachment are changing, while the conditions of sexual difference, both biologically and socially, have undergone far-reaching modifications.
