HERRMANN, Leda. The episteme of Psychoanalysis: a multiple Fields Theory contribution. J. psicanal. [online]. 2006, vol.39, n.70, pp. 81-96. ISSN 0103-5835.

This paper considers that the Multiple Fields Theory recovered the heuristic dimension of the psychoanalytic method, making the interpretative character of psychoanalytic knowledge evident. As a result of interpretation, psychoanalytic knowledge is useful only in the original context of its discovery. Transferred directly to other situations, such knowledge is awkwardly accommodated, hence generalization is arbitrary. According to the Fields Theory, knowledge is produced in psychoanalysis by procedures of interpretation as narrative procedures are produced in literature, not by the results of the interpretations. The results can only be known when referred to the process by which they came forth. Finally an example of theoretical production in the Fields Theory is given.
