Transference: the love to know

The article tries to make evident a new direction in the question of transference love according to Lacan's teaching. At first, it deals with the question of the analyst's position in order to answer to this love. Lacan's thesis relies on the fact that this love is addressed to knowledge. Based on that, the analyzand puts the analyst in the position of a subject supposed to know, supposed to have a consistent knowledge, a knowledge that knows. However, from the analyst's point of view, knowledge does not know. Having this in mind as the truth, the analyst must analyze his patient.
