==Communication theory==
 
Most theories of [[communication]] (offered by modern [[linguistics]]) are characterised by two important features.
 
However, both these features are put into question by the specific experience of [[communication]] in [[psychoanalytic]] [[treatment]].

Most ===Intentionality===These theories usually involve a reference to the category of [[communicationintentionality]] offered by modern , which is conceived of as coterminous with [[linguisticsconsciousness]] are characterised by two important features.
Firstly, they usually involve They represent [[communication]] as a reference to the category of intentionality, simple process in which is conceived of as coterminous with a [[consciousnessmessage]]is sent by one person (the addresser) to another (the addressee).<ref>Jakobson. 1960. p. 21</ref>
Secondly, they represent The specific experience of [[communication]] as a simple process in which a message is sent by one person ([[psychoanalytic]] [[treatment]] contradicts the addresser) to another (the addressee).<ref>e.gsupposed feature of [[intentionality]]. Jakobson, 1960: 21</ref>
However, both these features are put into question by the specific experience of [[communicationSpeech]] in is revealed to possess an [[psychoanalyticintentionality]] that goes beyond [[treatmentconscious]]purpose.
[[Speech]] is revealed to possess an intentionality that goes beyond [[conscious]] purpose.
Secondly, the speaker's message is seen to be not merely directed at another but also at himself;
"In [[human ]] [[speech ]] the sender is always a receiver at the same time."<ref>{{S3}} p.24</ref>
It can be said that the part of the speaker's message which is addressed to himself is the [[unconscious]] [[intention ]] behind the message.
When speaking to the [[analyst]], the [[analysand]] is also addressing a message to himself, but is not aware of this.
The task of the [[analyst]] is to enable the [[analysand]] to hear the [[message ]] he is [[unconscious]]ly addressing to himself by interpreting the [[analysand]]'s words, the [[analyst]] permits the [[analysand]]'s [[message ]] to return to him in its true, [[unconscious]] dimension.  Hence [[Lacan]] defines analytic [[communication]] as the [[act]] whereby "the sender receives his own message from the receiver in an inverted form."<ref>{{Ec}} p.41</ref>
