CONTRAPSICOANÁLISIS

Abstract

Following the elaborations made by Lacan in his seminar L’insu que sait de l’une-bévue s’aile à mourre, this paper inquires about the proposal of a “counter-psychoanalysis”, that is to say, an attempt to reestablish the equivalency of the three orders –real, symbolic, imaginary– against the covering of the real and the imaginary by the symbolic as an effect of psychoanalysis. To clear up the stated query, Freud’s and Lacan’s attempts of formalization about the end of analysis will be checked, including modes and uses of interpretation, marking the differences between both authors and the effects of this on the psychoanalytic practice
