Dreams and transference
(1990)
Outlines perspectives of Freud (e.g., 1900) and of E. FROMM (e.g., 1951) concerning the nature of dreams and their relationship to transference. During psychoanalysis, dreamers must begin to experience the intimate global symbol of their dreams and retain consciousness of what had been unconscious to them. This process must accompany what they communicate in the dyad; otherwise the analytic procedure becomes an intellectual construct and analysands remain aloof from their dreams, the latent content of the dreams, and what they could become aware of in the waking state. Relevant dreams of a 40-yr-old man over 4 yrs of analysis are described.
