AGAINST UNDERSTANDING
Theoretical move: Fink argues, following Lacan, that analytic listening must bypass imaginary understanding and operate at the symbolic level—attending to the formal, material dimensions of speech (slips, pauses, compromise formations)—in order to localize and work with the analysand's jouissance, which belongs to the real and cannot be 'understood' but only detected and perturbed through oracular interpretation.
