This article aims at reflecting on the theme of alterity in Freud studying the relations of the author with the Greek-Roman and Jewish tradition. The purpose also is to construct some figures of alterity, catching the different degrees of the presence of the "other", that can be thought of as causes of the subject. From the reading of technical articles we have tried to understand the different figures (Gestalten) of alterity that the Freudian theory and clinic face.
