Oedipus (is not) king

By Éderson Luis Silveira

Maurice Blanchot once mentioned that only nine words would be needed for him to say everything he had to say. However, he would write a book and another and another and not find the nine words. This book that the reader is holding in their hands is an attempt to go through the search that is part of this game of unreachable words, of a saying that is not exhausted in order to bring together and perceive tensions and developments between Judith Butler and Michel Foucault, especially when both philosophers look at the question of psychoanalysis as a device of sexuality in the West. In this way, the dismantling of the Oedipus continues to be pertinent so that we can think beyond the structuring of the heterosexual bourgeois family as a regulatory matrix of subjectivities.
