O analista e sua ética: uma leitura em Freud e Lacan

Abstract

The aim of this study was to get to know, throughout reading texts by Freud and Lacan, points which we call analyst ́s ethics. To do so, it was took as starting point the so-called "Technical Articles" by Freud, going through the concept of transfering and finally linking the ethics of psychoanalysis itself, as opposed to a traditional conception of ethics, to the analyst ́s ethics. At the end, it was possible to verify that the analyst's work should be based on what psychoanalysis theorizes about the malaise and the possibilities before him, seeking to bring the subject under analysis to identify not with the person of the analyst, but with the investigative practice he represents. Furthermore, it can be said that the analyst ́s ethics in his work differs from the traditional conception of ethics that promotes a judgment of actions, distancing conceptions of "good" or "bad", drifting away from the persue of ideals of normality. Above all, it is based on the analyst's renounce of his ideals and personal expectations, underscoring the need for personal analysis
