«From psychoanalysis to juridical thought» (Contri, 1994): this is the direction of the theoretical thinking of Giacomo B. Contri (1941-2022), a Freudian after Lacan, as shown in the articles and interviews published in the journal Psicoterapia e Scienze Umane [Psychotherapy and the Hu-man Sciences] from 1989 to 2016, which we retrace here. Contri develops a revolutionary para-digm, with the twofold result of advancing the science of the unconscious inaugurated by Freud and correcting the errors of his master: «From Lacan I learned to be a Freudian» (Guerrieri & Contri, 1993, p. 103). If the unconscious is a third law after nature and nurture, since the thought elaborates the conditions of satisfaction from the very beginning by means of another person, the psychoanalyst treats the unconscious in crisis by means of the thought itself. The step taken by Contri in 2010 was decisive: noting that a School leaves the teacher/pupil model intact - mass psychology - he founded the Società Amici del Pensiero "Sigmund Freud" [Society of Friends of Thought "Sigmund Freud"], thus radicalizing the detachment from the Lacanian paradigm.
