<!--==Self-Consciousness==The term '[[sujet supposé savoirillusion]]' can be translated as the 'of a [[self-consciousness]] which is [[subject supposed transparent]] to knowitself in its [[act]]' or as the 'supposed subject of [[knowledge|knowing]], constituted in the [[mirror stage]], is put into question by [[psychoanalysis]].'

The ==Symbolic Knowledge==[[illusionPsychoanalysis]] of a demonstrates that [[knowledge]] (''[[self-consciousnesssavoir]] which '') is not located in any [[particular]] [transparent[subject]] to itself but is, in its fact, [[actintersubjective]].<ref>{{L}} [[Seminar IX|Le Séminaire. Livre IX. L'identification, 1961-62]]'', unpublished. [[Seminar]] of 15 November 1961.</ref>-->===Transference===In 1964, [[Lacan]] defines [[knowingtransference]], constituted in as the [[mirror stageattribution]]of [[knowledge], is put into question by ] to a [[psychoanalysissubject]].

<blockquote>"As soon as the subject who is supposed to [[Psycho[[analysis]]]] demonstrates that [[knowledgeknow]] (''savoir'') is not located in any particular [[subjectexists]] but somewhere there is, in fact, [[intersubjective]]transference."<ref>Lacan, 1961-2: seminar of 15 November 1961{{S11}} p. 232</ref></blockquote>

In 1964, It is the [[Lacananalysand]] defines 's ''supposition'' of a subject who [[transferenceknows]] as that initiates the attribution of [[analytic]] [[process]] rather than the knowledgeactually possessed by the [[analyst]] . The term [[subject supposed to know]] does not designate the analyst, but rather a function which the analyst may come to embody in the [[subjecttreatment]]."As soon as It is only when the subject who analyst is supposed perceived by the analysand to know exists somewhere there is embody this function that the transferencecan be said to be established."<ref>Sll, 232{{S11}} p. 233</ref>

It ===Signification===When this occurs, what kind of knowledge is the [[[[analysand]]]]'s supposition of a [[subject]] who [[knows]] it that initiates the [[analytic]] [[process]] rather than the [[knowledge]] actually possessed by the [[[[analyst]]]].is presumed to possess?

The term '[[subject <blockquote>"He is supposed to know]]' does not designate the [[[[analyst]]]]that from which no one can escape, but rather a function which the [[[[analyst]]]] may come to embody in the [[treatment]]as soon as he formulates it - quite simply, signification."<ref>{{S11}} p. 253</ref></blockquote>

It In [[other]] [[words]], the analyst is only when often [[thought]] to know the [[analystsecret]] [[meaning]] of the analysand's [[word]]s, the [[signification]]s of [[speech]] is perceived by of which even the [[analysandspeaker]] to embody this function is unaware. This supposition alone (the supposition that the transference can besaid analyst is one who knows) causes otherwise insignificant details (chance gestures, ambiguous remarks) to be established.<ref>{{Sll}} pacquire [[retroactively]] a special [[meaning]] for the [[patient]] who "supposes".233</ref>

When ===Practice===It may happen that the [[patient]] supposes the [[analyst]] to be a subject who knows from the very first treatment, or even before, but it often takes some [[time]] for the transference to become established. In the latter [[case]], "when the subject enters the [[analysis]], he is far from giving the analyst this occurs, what kind [[place]] of knowledge is it that the [[subject supposed to know]]."<ref>{{S11}} p. 233</ref> The analysand may initially [[regard]] the analystas a buffoon, or may withhold information from him in [[order]] to maintain his [[ignorance]].<ref>{{S11}} p. 137</ref> However, "even the [[psychoanalyst]] put in question is presumed to possess? credited at some point with a certain infallibility."<ref>{{S11}} p.234</ref>

"He Sooner or later some [[chance]] gesture of the analyst is taken by the analysand as a [[sign]] of some secret [[intention]], some hidden knowledge. At this point the analyst has come to embody the [[subject supposed to know that from which no one can escape, as soon as he formulates it ]]; the transference is established. The [[end of analysis]] comes when the analysand de- quite simplysupposes the analyst of knowledge, signification."<ref>{{Sll}} pso that the analyst falls from the [[position]] of the [[subject supposed to know]].253</ref>

In other words, ===Position of the Analyst===The term "[[analystsubject supposed to know]] " also emphasizes the fact that it is often thought to know the a particular [[secretrelationship]] to knowledge that constitutes the unique position of the analyst; the analyst is aware that there is a [[meaningsplit]] between him and the knowledge attributed to him. In other words, the analyst 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. The analyst must realize that, of the knowledge attributed to him by the analysand, he knows [[analysandnothing]].<ref>{{L}} "[[Works of Jacques Lacan|Proposition du 9 octobre 1967 sur le psychanalyste de l's wordsÉcole]]," 1967, the ''[[significationScilicet]]s of '', no. 1 ([[speech1968]] of which even the speaker is unaware) p. 20</ref>

This supposition alone (the supposition that the [[analyst]] is one who knows) causes otherwise insignificant details (chance gestures, ambiguous remarks) to acquire retroactively a special [[meaning]] for the [[patient]] who 'supposes'. It may happen that the [[patient]] supposes the [[analyst]] to be a subject who knows from the very first [[treatment]], or even before, but it often takes some time for the [[transference]] to become established.  In the latter case, "when the subject enters the [[analysis]], he is far from giving the [[analyst]] this place of the [[subject supposed to know]]."<ref>{{Sll}} p.233</ref>  The [[analysand]] may initially regard the [[analyst]] as a buffoon, or may withold information from him in order to maintain his ignorance.<ref>{{S11}} p.137</ref> ===Training===However, "even the [[psychoanalyst]] put in question is credited at some point with a certain infallibility."<ref>{{S11}} p.234</ref>  Sooner or later some chance gesture of the [[analyst]] is taken by the [[analysand]] as a [[sign]] of some secret intention, some hidden [[knowledge]]. At this point the [[analyst]] has come to embody the [[subject supposed to know]]; the [[transference]] is established. The [[end of analysis]] comes when the [[analysand]] de-supposes the [[analyst]] of [[knowledge]], so that the [[analyst]] falls from the position of the [[subject supposed to know]]. The term '[[subject supposed to know]]' also emphasises the fact that it is a particular relationship to [[supposed knowledge]] that constitutes the unique position of the [[analyst]]; the [[analyst]] is aware that there is a [[split]] between him and the [[knowledge]] attributed to him.  In other words, the [[analyst]] must realise that he only occupies the position mainstay of one who is presumed (by the [[analysand]]) to know, without fooling himself that he really does possess the [[knowledge]] attributed to him.  The [[analyst]] must realise that, of the [[knowledgetreatment|analytic process]] attributed to him by the [[analysand]], he knows nothing.<ref>Lacan, 1967: 20</ref>  However, the fact that it is a supposed [[knowledge]] that is the mainstay of the analytic process, rather than the [[knowledge]] actually possessed by the [[analyst]], does not mean that the [[analyst]] can therefore be [[content ]] with [[knowing ]] nothing; on the contrary, [[Lacan]] argues that [[analystanalysts]]s should emulate [[Freud]] in becoming experts in [[cultural]], [[literary]] and [[linguistic]] matters. [[Lacan]] also remarks that, for the [[analyst]], the [[analysand]] is a [[subject supposed to know]].  When the [[analyst]] explains the [[fundamental rule]] of [[free association]] to the [[analysand]], he is effectively saying; "Come on, say anything, it will all be marvellous."<ref>{{Sl7}} p.59</ref>  In other words, the [[analyst]] tells the [[analysand]] to behave as if he knew what it was all about, thereby instituting him as a [[subject supposed to know]].
