Abstract

SANTIAGO, Jésus  and  ESSELIN DE SOUSA LINO, Carolina. Knowledge and truth in the dream of Irma’s injection. Psicol. rev. (Belo Horizonte) [online]. 2010, vol.16, n.3, pp.505-516. ISSN 1677-1168.

The experience of Psychoanalysis, being the experience of the unconscious, was inaugurated by Freud in search of a truth unknown, and this resulted in a special relationship with the knowledge. With the development of Psychoanalysis and Lacan’s contributions, the unconscious was identified with the dimension of knowledge. In order to clarify the knowledge’s dimension in its relation with truth, we have used the dream of Irma’s injection. We give preference to emergency of the trimethylamine’s formula in the dream, and equate with lacanian contributions, especially the Seminars 16 and 17. From the study it was possible clarify the dimension of knowledge in Psychoanalysis as on the unconscious and intimate relationship with the enjoyment, and also situate its mobilization from the relationship established with the truth

Keywords : knowledge; truth; enjoyment.
