description | This article deals with the imaginary and symbolic function of the psyche, and the Real as the main categories of Lacan's thought, which was achieved by the logical extension of Freud's psychoanalysis, and then, by using the Freudian-Lacanian conceptual network, the roots of formation of Plato's metaphysics will be considered. A requirement of Parmenides' philosophy is silence and the inevitable outcome of Heraclitus's becoming, is idle talk, and perhaps the death of Socrates is due to the disregard of the defenders of Parmenides to social issues and the baseless discourse of the defenders of Heraclitus. According to the Freudian-Lacanian interpretation, Parmenides’ thought, which deals with the idea, corresponds to the symbolic function, and Heraclitus’ orientation, which pays attention to sensory perceptions, is compatible with the imaginary function of the psyche. However according to the Platonic interpretation, absorption in unity is a static activity, and mere attention to multiplicity leads to baseless dynamics. Plato uses the generality and necessity of the idea to limit the representation of the object and transcends the violence hidden in the imaginary function by the truth-seeking spirit in the play of ideas. |
