ABSTRACT
Classically, negative transferences develop as a counterpoint to positive aspects of the transference: as the negative pole of the positive transference, they are inherent to the unfolding of the process. However, negative transferences are not only defined by the negative or violent quality of the feelings they express, but also by the force of their movements which impede the unfolding of the process. In the course of the week before, the analyst had asked him, exceptionally, if they could change the time of a session, usually in the evening, to lunch time; moreover, in the session the day before, the analyst had interpreted the patient's difficulties in getting in touch with his affects. As movements counter to the process, their psychic expressions fuelled by manifest or latent reproaches are addressed to the transference object and the object of the transference.
