ABSTRACT
This article is an excerpt from the research for a Master's degree in the Stricto Sensu Graduate Program in Psychology at the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, supported by the Foundation for the Support to the Researches in Minas Gerais (Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de Minas Gerais - [FAPEMIG]). It aimed to investigate the implications of contemporary discourse in establishing transference in analysis today. Among his formulations, Lacan (1964-2008) theorizes the transferential phenomenon from the epistemological dimension when he postulates the function of the ‘subject supposed to know’ as its pivot. However, the incidence of the contemporary master's discourse modifies the relation that the subject establishes with the knowledge field. What are the clinical consequences of this new relationship? What uses does the subject make of the analyst today? We will seek to verify the existence of new forms of transference, which are not established solely by the knowledge assumption. Thus, we will see that there are different uses for the analyst, and the transference can be set through knowledge via, but also through its drive dimension.
