内容摘要 The author's writings, and especially the seminars for which he has become famous, have provoked intense controversies in French analytic circles, requiring as they do a radical reappraisal of the legacy bequeathed by Freud. This volume is based on a year's seminar, which is of particular importance because he was addressing a larger, less specialist audience than ever before, amongst whom he could not assume familiarity with his work. For his listeners then, and for his readers now, he wanted "to introduce a certain coherence into the major concepts on which psycho-analysis is based", namely the unconscious, repetition, the transference and the drive. In re-defining these four concepts he explores the question that, as he puts it, moves from "Is psycho-analysis a science?" to "What is a science that includes psycho-analysis?" 作者的著作,尤其是他成名的研讨会,在法国分析界引起了激烈的争议,要求他们对弗洛伊德留下的遗产进行彻底的重新评估。本书以一年的研讨会为基础,这一点特别重要,因为他面对的受众比以往任何时候都多,而且专业性较低,而他无法假设他们熟悉他的工作。对于当时的听众和现在的读者来说,他希望“在精神分析所依据的主要概念中引入一定的连贯性”,即无意识、重复、移情和驱动力。在重新定义这四个概念时,他探索了一个问题,正如他所说,这个问题是从“精神分析是一门科学吗?”开始的。到“什么是包括精神分析在内的科学?”
