The event and temporality. Deferred action in treatment. Discussion The asymmetry necessarily involves the precession of the countertransference in the first encounter. This is exemplified by the description of the Aurore case. Just as the appeal to the other enables the traumatic event to be transformed into deferred action, the treatment setting with its function as third, the analyst’s internal framework, and the release from the control by mastery of the omnipotent object for both the analysand and the analyst allow the interplay to begin between the agencies. As for the unconscious that has emerged from outside, from what « outside » is this? Can the event be considered as the onset of binding? And concerning early traumas, does the retroactive problematic allow these to be addressed without anticipating modalities for processing the narcissistic impingements of the ego? The question finally arises of the function of interpretation as a key element of the retroactive goal through the analyst’s own internal reappropriation of the setting.
