In this book Jean-Luc Donnet explores the particularities of the status of the method in psychoanalysis, linked to the specificity of unconscious psychic processes. If the method aims at ensuring a level of technical mastery, it must also make sure that analytic treatment does not become an application of knowledge. A modern conception of the analytic situation implies going beyond the classical pair of setting-interpretation . Starting out from the postulate of a transferential dynamic of the encounter, the author brings into play the pair analyzing site-situation . The analyzing situation emerges from the utilization, in a found-created mode (Winnicott), of an initial site constituted by a set of means put at the patient s disposal. The analyzing situation includes patient and analyst in a self-organizing structure. The notion of a site makes it possible to approach the difference between psychoanalysis and analytic psychotherapy differently: each site has a logic, an intrinsic functional coherence, which have their own incidence on the therapeutic process. In the second part of the book, which ends with analysis of an essential screen-memory A Child Is Being Talked About, the author also presents four other texts: a vertiginous study of Conrad s novel, "Lord Jim"; a new exploration of tender humour; a moving reading of Freud s "A Disturbance on the Acropolis," and a radical approach to "Civilization and its Discontents" which reflect the central place he gives to the agency of the superego as a keystone of Freudian thought."
