Abstract

In most discussions on the topic of the ‘father,’ the reference is made to the ‘traditional’ father. The inadequately explained criticism of this fact, what is meant by this criticism, and what hides behind these conceptions form Barbara Drinck’s point of departure for her analysis of various father discourses. She examines the important father theories and father images with impressive detail-specific precision on the basis of pedagogical, psychological, and sociological contributions from the last 250 years.
