Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] The ambition of this collection is to find, through questions found in analytic practice, the points of intersection between that "operative" notion of truth that is proper to the Freudian unconscious, and the chances of the "modern" subject (and post [? ] modern) to understand, and in what way, as modified-modifiable by a certain knowledge: of which it cannot unravel (since it moves its puppet-like joints), without knowing what to do with it (and it would be to get on with its desire), that knowledge which we call "the unconscious" with Freud. With this text we therefore intend to at least cut out the connection between the overt determinism of psychic processes and the question of the subject's ethical capacity, as it can be posed in psychoanalysis, and to face some inevitable questions in analytic discourse: a practice of discourse can be established as a practice of change? How is the problem of its theoretical status produced in psychoanalysis, and how is it needed? What is real about the construction of / in the theory? And again: in what ways does psychoanalysis distance itself from science, it also practices discourse? And what is it like?
