This article explores the blurred boundary between a literal and a metaphorical meaning through an analysis of the evolution of the word 'mother' throughout history, which now encapsulates meanings such as 'adoptive mother', not tied to biological roles. The article ends by an analysis of Lacan's objet petit a as Deleuze's "paradoxical element" in the Logic of Sense, as well as with an analysis of the linguistic concept of the autohyponym.
