The speech of dream in Lacanian psychoanalysis
Vol.16,No.2(2022)
Psychoanalysis (special issue)
If we want to see in the analysis, let us listen to the dream as a way of speaking, as a poetic act. Let us listen to the language of the dream, the „Other Scene“, in which the subject appears as the self at different times and at the same time as someone else, alienated from himself together with something dark, uncanny. The dream, the opposite of oblivion, the instinct of death, is a function of aléthéia, the desire of the Eros. The analytic space is the place where language allows the fragments of dream images, voices to be composed into a meaningful metaphorical space-time whole. In it, the subject creates his story as he rewrites in words the mosaic of his basement world, its holes, cracks, disputes and dark passions into a new fiction in whose light he experiences himself as in a differently adjusted mirror. Analysis is going through the dream of the self, is dreaming the self differently.
