Abstract

The paper relates to the transference love as being double faced: it is, at the same time, a very important factor for the psychoanalysis development as well as a source of resistance to the psychoanalytical treatment. The transference of love to knowledge, which is sustained by the analyst’s position during the treatment, must be maintained as the analysis horizon, and never be confused with transference love. The analyst should receive this love as a genuine one, although not responding to or underestimating it. For that, he/ she shall use the analyst’s wish as an operator that maintains the tension at the point of suspension of knowledge.
