La neurosis del psicoanalista. Transferencia, neutralidad, hospitalidad y deseo del analista

Value of the Information & Strength of the Argument

The lecture offers a valuable critical perspective on the role of the analyst’s subjectivity, challenging the traditional ideal of neutrality. Bonoris’s argumentation is solid, drawing on clinical experience and theoretical references to support his claims. He effectively deconstructs the notion of countertransference as a mere reaction to be controlled, and instead proposes a more nuanced understanding based on Lacanian theory. The discussion is thought-provoking and relevant for practitioners, though it remains within the realm of expert opinion rather than empirical evidence.
