"[[{{Top}}suggest|suggestion]]" ([[Fr]]. ''[[suggestion]]'') {{Bottom}}

--==Psychiatric Definition==In nineteenth-century [[French ]] [[psychiatry]], the term "[[suggestion]]" referred to the use of hypnosis to remove [[neurotic]] [[symptoms]]; while the [[patient]] was in a [[state ]] of hypnosis, the doctor would "[[suggest]]" that the [[symptom]]s would [[disappear]].

The reasons for [[Freud]]'s [[dissatisfaction ]] with [[hypnosis]] are hence fundamental for understanding the specific nature of [[psychoanalysisunderstanding]].  However, it is beyond the scope of this article to enter into a detailed discussion of these reasons.  Suffice it to say that in specific [[Freud]]'s later work the term "[[suggestion]]" comes to represent a whole set of ideas which [[Freud]] associates with hypnosis and which is thus diametrically opposed to [[psychoanalysis]]. -- Following [[Freud]], [[Lacan]] uses the term "[[suggestion]]" to designate a whole range of deviations from true [[psychoanalysis]] (deviations which [[Lacan]] also refers to as "[[psychotherapy]]"), of which the following are perhaps the most salient: -- 1. [[Suggestion]] includes the idea of directing the [[patient]] towards some [[ideal]] or some [[moral]] value.  In opposition to this, [[Lacan]] reminds [[analysts]] that their task is to direct the [[treatment]], not the [[patientnature]].<ref>{{E}} p.227</ref> [[Lacan]] is opposed to any conception of [[psychoanalysis]] as a normative process of social influence. --

2. [[Suggestion]] also arises when the [[patient]]'s [[resistance]] However, it is seen as something that must be liquidated by beyond the scope of this article to enter into a detailed [[analystdiscussion]]of these reasons.

Such a view is completely foreign ==Psychoanalysis==Suffice it to say that in [[psychoanalysisFreud]], argues 's later [[Lacanwork]], since the term "[[suggestion]]" comes to [[analystrepresent]] recognises that a certain residue [[whole]] set of [[resistanceideas]] is inherent in the which [[structureFreud]] of the associates with hypnosis and which is thus diametrically opposed to [[treatmentpsychoanalysis]].

===Interpretation, Signification and Meaning===:3. In [[suggestion]], the [[interpretation]]s of the therapist are orientated around [[signification]], whereas the [[analyst]] orientates his [[interpretation]]s around [[meaning ]] (''[[meaning|sens]]'') and its correlate, [[meaning|nonsense]]. :Thus whereas in [[psychotherapy]] there is an attempt to avoid the ambiguity and equivocation of [[discourse]], it is precisely this ambiguity which [[psychoanalysis]] thrives on.

Thus whereas in ==Transference==[[psychotherapySuggestion]] there is an attempt to avoid the ambiguity and equivocation of has a close relation with [[discoursetransference]], it is precisely this ambiguity which [[psychoanalysis]] thrives on.<ref>{{E}} p. 270</ref>

==Position of the Analyst==[[SuggestionLacan]] has a close relation with argues that the [[transferenceanalyst]]must realize that he only occupies the [[position]] of one who is presumed (by the [[analysand]]) to [[know]], without fooling himself that he really does possess the [[knowledge]] attributed to him.<ref>{{E}} p.270</ref>

[[LacanSuggestion]] argues that , on the [[other]] hand, arises when the [[analyst]] must realise that he only occupies assumes the position of one who is presumed (by the [[analysand]]) to know, without fooling himself that he really does possess the [[knowledge]] attributed to himknow.

In this way==Hypnosis and Psychoanalysis==Like [[Freud]], the [[analystLacan]] sees [[hypnosis]] is able to transform as the [[transferencemodel]] into "an analysis of [[suggestion]]."<ref>{{E}} p.271</ref>

----  Like [[Freud]], [[Lacan]] sees [[hypnosis]] as the model of [[suggestion]].  In ''[[Group Psychology and the Analysis of the Ego]]'', [[Freud]] shows how hypnotism makes the [[object]] converge with the [[ego-ideal]].<ref>{{F}} 1921</ref>  To put this in [[Lacan]]ian terms, [[hypnotism]] involves the convergence of the [[object]] ''a'' and the I.  [[Psychoanalysis]] involves exactly the opposite, since "the fundamental mainspring of the [[analytic ]] operation is the maintenance of the distance between I - [[identification ]] - and the ''a''."<ref>{{S11}} p.273</ref>. {{Les termes}}
