The author describes his feelings reading O. Bonard’s rich text, “The lawyers of the id”, as an auto-poetic experience, a metaphor of the listening during treatment, with its dramas between instances et its transference and counter-transference dynamics. He believes tant the text by Bonard can be better appreciated by the French-speaking reader when he or she realizes the extent to which Bonard draws, for clinical and theoretical purposes, on the field of experience of psychodrama.
