For the love of Safouan
Abstract
This chapter offers a homage to the work and teaching of the psychoanalyst Moustapha Safouan via the working of an error in the author’s memory of an encounter with Safouan. The error is worked with reference to the question of how an analyst “counts” in analysis through his or her work rather than identification.
