Abstract

SPESSOTO, Leda Beolchi. On the psychoanalyst's look and other work tools: New recommendations. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2011, vol.45, n.4, pp. 129-138. ISSN 0486-641X.

Basing herself on the technical recommendations made by Freud to the psychoanalysts, the author examines new possibilities for adjustment of the setting and new tools to be considered, due to a wider observation of mental functioning that has developed in this century that separates us from the original text. The analyst's perspective is reconsidered in its importance under certain conditions of the psychoanalytical work. Initially, to look at a patient is considered a resource in the search for cohesion in situations of disintegration. The author then examines the action of looking at a patient when he or she holds transformations in hallucinosis and sees the analyst in such a way that this one cannot recognize him or herself. In these circumstances, the challenge is to find an interlocutor for the examination of the differences. As such, the model of the accompanying analyst is proposed as an alternative to the eyes and to free association.

Keywords : transformations in hallucinosis; accompanying analyst; analyst's eyes; technical recommendations; setting.
