"’ This is the beginning of the analytic session (or simply any other instance before the subject’s investment of the Other with omniscience), where, as Lacan points out, the subject has not yet entered the transferential relation with the analyst.
The neurotic subject, whose life is an endless pursuit of the object of his desire, transfers to the Other that which he believes would fill the essential lack at the core of his being.
Thenceforth, Dysart becomes conscious of his own desires: of his desire to feel the ecstasy Alan has felt in his midnight reveries with the horse, of his desire to go to Greece and see all the grandeur which he has all his life seen only in black and white.
Alan confronts Dysart with his shortcomings and, thereby, makes him aware of his lack as a subject of desire.
" In fact, one can see Dysart behind each word he utters; however, with the difference that he does not possess as much as Alan either: he also is a modern citizen for whom society doesn’t exist, yet, unlike Alan’ he does not even live ‘one hour every three weeks’.
Analytic session, Lacan argued quite emphatically, should never end in the promise of finding an ultimate and final object of desire for the subject.
Dysart is still in the illusion that his desire can be fulfilled in such and such a way and that is exactly what makes his relationship with Alan a transferential one, because transference is, first among other things, a resistance and a barrier in the way of analysis."
