ABSTRACT
If interdisciplinarity was a necessary condition for the construction of the psychoanalytical field, transdisciplinarity provide evidence to justify the relevance of psychoanalysis as a mean of knowledge production at the university. By building bridges across different fields, while making other brands cross that theoretical edifice and be modified, Freud transmitted a true experience, instituting a new episteme. This article introduces the context of development of Freud's work and presents the hypothesis that there is an anticipation of interdisciplinarity in Freud. Then, it discusses the terms interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity. Finally, it argues that the status of psychoanalysis corresponds more to transdisciplinary practice than the simple dialogue or interdisciplinary integration.
