Abstract

SANTOS FILHO, Francisco Carlos dos. Getting to know the unconscious: report on the experience of teaching psychoanalysis in university to third-year students in the psychology graduation course. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2007, vol.41, n.2, pp. 78-87. ISSN 0486-641X.

Knowing the unconscious requires scientific dedication, affective depth and sensitivity for the inter-human experience. If in the psychoanalytical tradition, transmission and training are mutually built during theoretical seminars, supervision and personal analysis, in the graduation situation this is not the case. Restricted to the classroom and to theoretical transmission we increase the risk for a superficial and theoretical teaching, which aborts the density of the psychoanalytical clinical process and leads to the loss of enthusiasm for this work, opening space for intellective, persuasive and suggestive practices. How can we introduce the young student to the clinical experience and provide him with a conceptual basis that is supportive without creating an exceedingly resistant barrier in the teaching-learning process? With the "interview lab" we have sought transmission in the frontier between the theoretical and the experience which is undividable from the learner’s subjective experience. We intend to discuss, through the students’ analysis of theoretical productions, the effects of such teaching and the necessary conditions to work it through.

Keywords : Psychoanalysis and university; Teaching of psychoanalysis; Transmission of psychoanalysis.
