paternity
Definition
- In Civilization and Its Discontents (1930), the father of modern psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud (1865–1939), declares that “the common man cannot imagine … Providence otherwise than in the figure of an enormously exalted father. Only such a being can understand the needs of the children of men and be softened by their prayers and placated by the signs of their remorse.” As Freud was aware, the father figure throughout human history has often represented the chief religious deity—for example, the Greek god Zeus and the Roman god Jupiter (combining Zeus and the Latin pater, meaning father).
