TIRESIA, AN INTERPETER OF VIOLENCE: ABOUT THE VIOLATION OF BORDERS AND THE DESOLATION OF THE WORD<br />
In this world Tiresias appears uncertain, old, “withered”; forced to observe not<br />
a universe enclosed in the myth populated by heroes, but a sad bourgeois reality<br />
of the urban periphery.<br />
The great wisdom that comes to him from being in possession of both genders<br />
is transformed into fragility, omnipotent delirium.<br />
The gift of seeing with one’s eyes degraded into a card reader’s trick.<br />
Is Tiresias, at least in part, a metaphor for the difficulties of narrating and interpreting<br />
in many psychopathologies of the contemporary clinical panorama?<br />
