How To Stop An Alarm From Ringing

Freudian readings

Collective Freudian readings

Since September, we met five times. After putting the final reading and translating Ichspaltung im Abwehrvorgang - The division of the subject in the process of defense - latest text of Freud, we have approached the study of Konstruktionen in der Analysis - Constructionen in the analysis, Freud wrote in 1937.
Freud compares the analyst's work to that of the archaeologist. He prefers the construction of interpretation. The latter accounts for only a short time of treatment, a dream, a joke, a slip or a missed note. The construction cons embraces large pieces of the life of the analysand. The archaeologist as the analyst searches, finds buried sites and buildings of the past. He speaks of "verschüttete Wohnstätten.
The analyst is preferred because it has to do with hardware alive, while the archaeologist has to deal with ruins, dead objects. An analysis can complement his story, fill gaps, not the archeologist, the objects are buried in different layers, which moved over the centuries. The discussion on the translation of the word verschüttet can last long without that we find the right word. Either Ausgrabungen, we have translated "exhumations. We will resume the discussion around that word next time.
In previous articles, I have not enough emphasis on the translation work, research best word can we do in our group. This work takes a lot. There is an Italian colleague in the group, sometimes we go through to find the Italian word French. We spend several languages anyway, we travel from one language to another.
