BARROS, Elias M. da Rocha  y  BARROS, Elizabeth L. da Rocha. Critical reflections on the inter-subjective processes: countertransference, reverie and the process of symbolization. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2012, vol.46, n.1, pp.135-149. ISSN 0486-641X.

The authors thread a story of the concepts of countertransference and reverie, since the beginning of their use, associating them to new correlated psychoanalytic notions which were gradually introduced and which demanded the redefinition of these original concepts. Next, they describe the process which permeates the constitution of countertransference and, above all, the role of evocation. Dreams, narrations and their expressions evoke in us metaphors, which combine discursive and non-discursive articulations, which in turn give shape to the feelings which are being projected in us during transference. As we interpret, we place these evoked experiences on another symbolic base, transforming the evocative language of the visual symbols of the dream or metaphor, or yet of the expressive occurrences of countertransference, into a verbal language descriptive of meanings. As such, we amplify the capacity of reflecting upon the experience by attributing meaning to the feelings involved. The works of Ogden on reverie are discussed and considered primary to the elaboration of the concept in the way it is used today.

Palabras clave : countertransference; revêrie; contain; evocation; expressivity; symbolism; Ogden; Langer.
