That the main difficulty is emotional rather than intellectual is confirmed by the fact that when analysts analyze themselves they have not such a great advantage over the layman as we would be inclined to believe. The crucial difficulty in self-analysis lies not in these fields but in the emotional factors that blind us to unconscious forces. ![]() ![]() Hurst states that, in principle, self-analysis ( analyst's discourse) might prevent an analyst from retrogressing to the ideological position of the master's discourse (i.e., King in The Purloined Letter). Narrative speech ( parole) is an attempt to resolve the Real-Imaginary aporia ( langue) concerning events. The real subject (as id) is repressed (via aphanisis) by the imaginary-signified ego's ideologizing overtop of the real instincts. A master signifier (S1) organizes narrative (S2): a defensive form of discourse that is an ideological reaction to the Real: i.e., mythic explanation, hero's journey, storytelling, theme, pathos, ethos, plot, conflict, closure.
