This paper examines how the concept of intersubjectivity has been theoretically approached over time, as well as the contributions of major theorists to its clinical manifestations. It also addresses the concepts of projective identification, countertransference, the field, and the analytic third, all of which are fundamental to understanding the intersubjective domain. Drawing on Freud's analogy of psychoanalysis as an “archaeological excavation,” this metaphor is revisited within an intersubjective framework. Inaddition to emphasizing the importance of thinking Freud's drive theory together with intersubjective approaches, the paper discusses the notion of the field and its tri-personal structure. It emphasizes that approaching psychoanalytic work-grounded in the asymmetric positions of analyst and analysand-within an intersubjective framework can open the way to a new narrative of the past, present, and future, extending beyond merely exploring the past.
