| Résumé: | The seminar “Interpreting, reading, writing. Psychoanalysis and literature” looks at how literature is used in the work of psychoanalysts. The contributions of the speakers and discussions with the participants have identified four ways in which literature is used. Some writing is self-analysis, which raises the question of the difference between sublimation and working-through. When the analyst, challenged by the negative, uses the detour of literature to elaborate his counter-transference, he or she is identifying himself in some way with the writer. For the analysand, as, in a different way, for the analyst, becoming a subject presupposes the invention of a language and the recognition of a style, establishing the other as a witness to a life that can be related. In the session, a literary work can function as a transitional object due to the extreme condensation of instinctual drive elements contained in poetic expression. The seminar is above all an opportunity for a literary feast shared by analytic colleagues, rich in after-effects. |
