In The Agency of the Letter, Or Reason Since Freud, Lacan reminds us that Freud's early use of the term transference in Interpretation of Dreams denoted a specific function performed by the signifier, a function whose development is inscribed in the formulas of connexion and substitution (Ecrits: A Selection 170). Only later was the term used name the mainspring of the intersubjective link between analyst and analysand (170).1 Now the formulas referred to here are none other than the so-called algorithms for metonymy and metaphor which Lacan had transcribed a few pages earlier in this second section of the article
