Abstract

The new world, especially post-modern, with technology and virtual communication media, has revealed a forty-piece identity of people. maybe Countries can handle the protection of geographical borders, but with the Internet, the preservation of the culture and language of nations seems out of reach. Today, the language behavior of the Persian language user in cyberspace is moving of distorting the language and it's in such a way that if it's not paid attention to, it can threaten the health of language. Considering the importance of language in the Lacan's psychoanalysis, this research has investigated the users of cyberspace from the psychoanalytic point of view with a descriptive-analytical method and has pathologicalized the common language in this space. The findings indicate that the Iranian subject distorts the language morphologically and syntactically for many reasons and doesn't obey the father's law (standard Persian language) by resisting the correct use of language. According to Lacan's perception of the subject's status in the symbolic stage, subject needs a master signifier to achieve a semantic and identity stability. It seems that the Academy of Persian Language and Literature, if the necessary preparations are made and with the cooperation with cultural institutions such as education, universities, the Cultural Revolution Council, the National Cyberspace Organization, the Iranian Broadcasting Corporation, etc.., can be a meaningful signifier for the subject in a stabilizing position. The standard language should appear and guarantee the health of the structure of the Persian language to a large extent and remove the existing damages.
