Dream: Its Interpretation and Use in Lacanian Treatment  

61CcyZ3yF6L.jpg

"One spends one’s time dreaming, one doesn’t only dream when asleep." – Jacques Lacan, "The Moment to Conclude""Dream: Its Interpretation and Use in Lacanian Treatment" is the theme that the World Association of Psychoanalysis has chosen for its biennial Congress. The challenge is to account for the contemporary practice of psychoanalysts of the Lacanian orientation in relation to dreams. This Scilicet thus aims at the heart of analytical practice. Its aim is to bring out into the open the way in which dreams are analyzed in treatments today. Thus, dear reader, you will be able to know how dreams are interpreted and what use is made of them in the treatment.This is the eighth volume in the Scilicet series, the title of which is taken from the review created by Jacques Lacan, which addressed each reader with the words – "You can know". Scilicet is an essential tool in the service of the exposed knowledge of psychoanalysts and is mobilized for each Congress of the World Association of Psychoanalysis (WAP).In the opening section, we are delighted to bring to the readers of this Scilicet volume a text by Jacques-Alain Miller: “Awakening”.Scilicet 8 is published by the World Association of Psychoanalysis

The Ordinary Psychoses and the Others, Under Transference

“Ordinary psychosis doesn’t have a rigid definition. Everyone is welcome to give his feeling and definition on ordinary psychosis. I didn’t invent a concept with ordinary psychosis. I invented a word, I invented an expression, I invented a signifier and I gave a very sketchy definition, just to attract the various meanings, the various shades of meaning, around the signifier. I didn’t give any know-how as to how to use this signifier. I bet that this signifier could elicit various echoes in the clinician, in the professional, and I wanted it to grow, and see how far this evasive expression would go.

I was inspired by what Lacan said with ‘The Pass’. Lacan gave only a sketchy definition of The Pass and opened it up to experiment so as to see, once this moment had been defined so sketchily, what would appear, what people would contribute. I wanted to do something like that with ordinary psychosis. And I believe it has been a powerful attractor of meaning.”

Jacques-Alain Miller – “Ordinary Psychosis Revisited”, Psychoanalytical Notebooks, No. 26, Psychosis Today, 2013.

This is no ordinary volume. This is not a dictionary on ordinary or extraordinary psychoses. This is not a manual on transference. This is a collection of formulations by 110 psychoanalysts of the World Association of Psychoanalysis on 105 diverse terms carefully chosen to show us something new: 21st century psychoses and their Lacanian psychoanalytic treatments.
