Civitarese Giuseppe - An Apocryphal Dictionary Of Psychoanalysis - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: An Apocryphal Dictionary of Psychoanalysis is a book of transpositions collecting together the author's clinical vignettes enigmatic objects stray thoughts projects images notes from readings and musings; but also remarks on films and exhibitions memories episodes from daily life summaries of papers to write questions doubts and obsessions - all of which have shaped the author's understanding of psychoanalysis. Born from moments in which the author has sensed a solution for problems encountered in daily work or for obscure but exciting points of the theory the entries are ordered in an apocryphal manner offering a personal and challenging view of psychoanalysis. Like small epiphanies in which there is always an emotion - be it that of amusement astonishment gratitude sadness joy they express the style of the analyst and of the person in treating mental suffering and give a glimpse into the imaginary which nurtures it. Ideas for psychoanalysis are outlined where at centre stage is the ability to wait to be surprised; to operate from the place of the unconscious which by definition is a place of negativity and to exercise a form of soft scepticism ultimately a mode of hospitality. An Apocryphal Dictionary of Psychoanalysis will be of great use to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists.
