Synopsis

Affect is a high-stakes topic in psychoanalysis, but there has long been a misperception that Lacan neglected affect in his writings. We encounter affect at the beginning of any analysis in the form of subjective suffering that the patient hopes to alleviate. How can psychoanalysis alleviate such suffering when analytic practice itself gives rise to a wide range of affects in the patient's relationship to the analyst?

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Colette Soler's encounter with the teaching of Jacques Lacan led her to undergo analytic training, and she has been practicing and teaching psychoanalysis since 1975, most recently in the context of the School of the Forums of the Lacanian Field, which she founded. Her primary fields of study were philosophy and psychopathology, and she has taught both of these at the university level.
