CALICH, José Carlos et al. The person of the analyst: the new/old uneasiness. Reflections from Jean Laplanche’s “Theory of Generalized Seduction”. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2009, vol.43, n.2, pp. 61-67. ISSN 0486-641X.

The paper proposes a reflection on the analytic situation, based on Laplanche’s thoughts about the “General Seduction Theory”. In this theory, neutrality should be re-defined considering the fundamental role of the “refusement” of the analyst, as a technical instrument to allow the work of fostering translation of the enigmatic messages. The complexity of the movements in the session is identified, as the analyst is also immersed in his own non-translated enigmatic messages that interfere with his work. A clinical material is presented illustrating the interplay between the filled-in transference and the hollow-out transference, this last opening the possibilities to reach the un-usual, un-thought, generating states of discomfort and uneasy, which at the same time favours new translations and are in the basis to unconscious expansion and growth.
