What differentiates and is specific to a psychoanalysis, in the singular, from all other practices of ‘psy’, more or less interpretative, and even the different currents in psychoanalysis itself?Lacan gave the seminar on the Analytic Act in the same year that he presented the Proposition on the psychoanalyst of the School (October 1967). He lays down his conception of the conditions and place from which the analyst operates: an “elective moment” of passage from analysand to analyst, he says, found at the end of an analysis, at the same time as at the beginning...The questions are many, but let us note, that two months after the “Proposition of 67”, Lacan asks the following astonishing question: “Will the ‘Proposition’ be an act?”, and he responds: “That depends on its consequences, as soon as they begin to occur.” And so, the question that links the Act to the School is posed.Contributors bibliography:Colette Soler practices and teaches psychoanalysis in Paris.
