Descripción
Sumario:The article proposes reflection on the way in which Greek tragedy inscribed in its texts the presence of what we call the "mourning voice". It is the materialization, in a generic vocal emission, of the pain of a fundamental loss that governs the subject's life. For us, this loss is associated with what psychoanalysis describes as the first experience of satisfaction experienced in the bond with the Other. Forever  lost, such an experience is expressed in the tragedy in the form of the interjection aîaî. Presenting itself as an offshoot of the adverb aeí (always) derived from aion (vital force), the cry aîaî seems to express the pain of a lost "forever" that gradually constitutes the very act of losing. The attempt to rediscover the object, based on this fundamental loss, will be forever represented by Something else.
