Audrey McAleese – An Incorrect Interpretation
The Letter 59 & 60 Summer – Autumn 2015, pages 63-68
This paper explores Ruth Lebovici’s question as to whether or not she has made an incorrect interpretation. Lacan’s critique offers insight into the possible role Lebovici played in the transitory perversion provoked in her patient in the course of his analysis with her. But the probing question for the analyst as to what interpretation is, remains to be grappled with in the direction of the treatment.
Keywords: interpretation; Ruth Lebovici; transitory perversion; phantasy; castration anxiety;transference/countertransference; the signifier; the laws of the unconscious
