From "The third bank of the river" - some considerations about transmission in psychoanalysis. Having the intransitive dimension of transmission in psychoanalysis at its core, this paper constructs a comparison between the logic of the literary discourse, in particular the short-story "From the third bank of the river", by J. Guimarães Rosa, and some crucial questions of the analytic experience, with the purpose of enacting, on the level of both the enunciation and the statement, an experience of transmission.
