How to Laugh Your Way Through Life: A Psychoanalyst's Advice
ISBN: 9781780490953 / Angielski / Miękka / 161 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While living in anti-Semitic Vienna, Freud wrote in a letter to Ernest Jones, -What progress we are making. In the Middle Ages they would have burned me. Now they are content with burning my books.- Tragicomic attunement--seeing the comic in the tragic and the tragic in the comic--is a perspective on life that, following Freud, is one of the best ways to -to ward off possible suffering- and better manage the stressors, anxieties, and worries of everyday life.
Moreover, tragicomic attunement and intervention has a meaning-giving, affect-integrating, life-affirming, double structure... While living in anti-Semitic Vienna, Freud wrote in a letter to Ernest Jones, -What progress we are making. In the Middle Ages they would have burned ...

Unconscious guilt exposes itself through visceral and cognitive impingements, which are...

During those years many analysts, especially in the English-speaking countries and Germany, where historic events loomed large in the lives of their patients, have turned from the exclusive emphasis on psychic reality to greater attention to the traumatic impact of external reality.

The Freudian Moment
ISBN: 9781780491301 / Angielski / Miękka / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Bollas eloquently argues for a return to our understanding of how Freudian psychoanalysis works unconscious to unconscious. Failure to follow Freud's basic assumptions about psychoanalytical listening has resulted in the abandonment of searching for -the logic of sequence- which Freud regarded as the primary way we express unconscious thinking. In two extensive interviews and follow-up essays, all occurring in 2006, we follow Christopher Bollas exploring his most recent and radical challenge to contemporary psychoanalysis. The Freudian Moment, Bollas argues, realizes a phylogenetic...

Psychoanalytic Listening: Methods, Limits, and Innovations
ISBN: 9781780491455 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Joseph Breuer's celebrated patient, Anna O., designated psychoanalysis to be a -talking cure-. She was correct insofar as psychoanalysis does place verbal exchange at the center stage. However, this focus upon the patient's and therapist's speaking activities diverts attention from how the two parties listen to each other. Psychoanalysis is a listening and a talking cure. Both elements are integral to clinical work. Listening with no talking can only go so far. Talking without listening can mislead and harm. And yet, the listening end of the equation has received short shrift in...

Just as concerts emerge from the interaction of many instruments, so our understanding of Shakespeare is enriched by different approaches to him.
