→Absolute Knowledge
=====Absolute Knowledge=====
[[Knowledge|Symbolic knowledge]] is the [[end of analysis|aim]] of '''[[treatment|psychoanalytic treatment]]''', and the only means of access to this [[knowledge]] is via a particular form of [[speech]] called '''[[free association]]'''.
The [[end of analysis|aim]] of '''[[treatment|psychoanalytic treatment]]''' is the [[progress|progressive reveletion]] of [[knowledge|symbolic knowledge]] to the [[subject]].
The [[end of analysis|aim]] of '''[[treatment|psychoanalytic treatment]]''' is the ''[[progress|progressive reveletion]]'' of [[knowledge|symbolic knowledge]] to the [[subject]], rather than a [[dialectic|Hegelian]] "[[knowledge|absolute knowledge]]," because the [[unconscious]] is irreducible; there is an inescapable '''[[split|division]]''' between the '''[[subject]]''' and '''[[knowledge]]'''.
