Long abstractMy aim is to elucidate ways in which analysts have responded to the challenges of queer theorists. Working with the operative distinction of analyst and queer theorist I draw out their shared vigilance of reductive classifications of foundational aesthetic, epistemic, ontological, ethico-political specifications of subjec-tive/intersubjective relationships. Corbett succinctly expresses the clinical ambiance of con-temporary psychoanalysis in his first sentence describing the pivotal relationships between different models of analytic praxis and social critiques of normality. By “leaning” toward the gener-ative grounding soil of psychoanalytic originality practitioners explore ways in which fantasy inter-implicates the body-subject and thereby challenge dualisms of mind/body, language/think-ing. Psychoanalytic space is delineated as a place in which the enigmatic dynamism of transferences of fantasies and attributes highlight the courageous listening/speaking ethos present in the rigorous work of contributors to this book, namely, encounters. Analysis opens horizons of varying inter-subjective spaces and times for the emergence of individual speaking of a body-sub-ject in their relational complexity (Ellis 2008, 187; 2010, 65–66).
