Abstract

STITZMAN, Leandro  and  BERLINER, Claudia. Relations without related objects: notes on analytic technique. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2013, vol.47, n.4, pp. 187-206. ISSN 0486-641X.

This work presents a series of questions related to the importance offormalizing a language that enables the development of intuition without saturating with preconceptions and biases the facts around which attention must be drawn through the formulation of a psychoanalytic interpretation. To that effect, presented here is an update of concepts that allows for the transformation of a theoretical formulation into a working formulation that favors the observation of relations without related objects in the formation of a personality. Starting with Bion's theory of transformations, the author proposes a type of interpretation consisting of a modelistic container and an abstract content that draws attention to relations without underlying related objects. Proposed and studied is a technique in which interpretation loses the status of a content in order to become an unsaturated container. A clinical illustration of the developed technique is presented here. This paper attempts to investigate the following questions: What does a psychoanalyst do? What is interpretation? What is the proper language of interpretation?

Keywords : technique; interpretation; observation; theory.
