ABSTRACT
The father gets his way – suggesting that the analyst has been put in the position of the paternal figure. In the manifest content, Dora is rescued from the burning house, and that is an encouraging sign in terms of the analysis. But there is something sufficiently anxietyprovoking about the situation that she wakes up. That is, she breaks off the dream abruptly. Might she not similarly break off abruptly from a dream-like analysis?
