  • Taylor & Francis The Story of Original Loss

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book explores the universal human existential trauma of original loss, a trauma the author describes as arising from our primal, human evolutionary loss of experiencing ourselves as innately belonging to, and instinctively at home within, the larger natural world.In this trauma arose our existential awareness of impermanence and mortality along with the need to mourn that loss in order to create a sense of belonging and identity. The book describes how the invention of art and group ritual became the collective ways we mourn our shared existential loss. It describes as well how it is the art within the psychoanalytic practice that enables both patient and analyst to grieve their individual versions of our shared original loss. Drawing on the work of Winnicott, Loewald and Ogden, as well as art theory and religion, this book offers a new perspective on the intersection of metaphorical artistic thinking and psychoanalysis.This book will appeal to psychoanalysts, psy

  • Taylor & Francis Sensate Focus and the Psyche

    15 in stock

    Sensate Focus and the Psyche explores in depth both psychoanalytic and psychosexual perspectives of sensate focus, a programme of touching exercises for couples with sexual problems, and in so doing provides an original, integrated model for understanding the conscious and unconscious impact of this tactile intervention on couples in treatment.Susan Pacey reviews the historical relationship between psychoanalysis and sex therapy and the splitting of mind, body and relationship since Freud. She illustrates how the tactile intervention can help repair the early life impingements on partnersâ individual development that mobilise anxieties about sexuality and shame in adulthood. Case studies illustrate how sensate focus can help conceptualise unconscious embodied memories, repair shame, encourage Winnicottian play, work through transitional phenomena and develop psychological space, establishing a platform for the healthy expression of adult sexuality. Pacey discusses how

    Book SynopsisThe experience of loss is ubiquitous in human life, but its nature and impact have great variations. When loss is phase-specific, expected, and accompanied by compensatory supplies, it can lead to ego growth. When loss is untimely, unexpected, and unaccompanied by environmental ''holding,'' it becomes traumatic and needs clinical attention.This edited volume brings together a distinguished cadre of international contributors in order to explain the multifaceted and nuanced nature of loss from a variety of different perspectives. These clinicians, administrators, and writers delineate the great variability in the setting, antecedents, and consequences of loss. Development-facilitating and development-impeding losses are addressed and so are the losses that seem inevitable as one moves from childhood through adolescence and young adulthood to midlife and old age. Loss experienced by institutional organizations and war-torn societies is also examined. The book's ultimate focus iTrade Review"This collection of essays addresses the universal challenge of loss, something that none of us escapes in our lives. The editor and contributors elucidate the pain of loss and subsequent mourning states in varied contexts: loss of crucial parts of oneself, loss of love relationships, loss of one’s prized possessions, loss of one’s home, and loss of one’s country. The pre-existing central ideals in this realm are further elaborated and theoretically fine-tuned. This promises the reader a deeper understanding of a crucial human experience ‒ one we encounter at every turn in our work…and in our own lives. This book is well-worth reading." Henri Parens, MD, Professor of Psychiatry, Thomas Jefferson University, Training and Supervising Analyst, Psychoanalytic Center of Philadelphia"In this wide ranging and comprehensive contribution to psychoanalysis and social science, Salman Akhtar and his contributors highlight the impact of different types of loss: normative, traumatic, actual, inevitable and invisible loss. They extend the scope of loss from individuals to organizations and war ravaged societies. The contributors exemplify their proposals with the help of poignant clinical vignettes, poetry, and powerful cinematic representations of mourning and loss. By fleshing out the important dynamics and multilayered consequences of loss, this book offers the reader an exceptionally rich intellectual and emotional experience. A must read!"

    Book SynopsisThe science of psychoanalysis is now more than a century old. During this period, it has been established as the instrument offering the most profound understanding of the human mind, and as the most effective tool for treating psychic suffering we have at our disposal. A Short Introduction to Psychoanalysis offers readers an introduction to this extraordinarily interesting discipline. In this short volume, Giuseppe Civitarese and Antonino Ferro explore psychoanalysis, which is at the same time a theory of unconscious psychic processes, a technique for investigating these, and a method for curing various forms of psychic suffering, by explaining some of its main themes and ideas. As the only introductory text to the increasingly popular post-Bionian theory of the analytic field, A Short Introduction to Psychoanalysis examines the theory of dreams, the concept of the unconscious, the psychoanalytic clinic, the analysis of children and adolescents, and the historyTable of ContentsIntroduction 1.

The book will give readers a window into Meltzer's clinical seminars and supervisions, as well as a comprehensive overview of his published work, all thoughtfully brought together by someone who worked with Meltzer for many years.Bringing Meltzer's ideas into contemporary context, this fresh approach to his work makes his rich and complex theories about our inner world accessible to all.
