This is the third volume in the series Contemporary Freud: Turning
Points and Critical Issues, published for the International
Psychoanalytical Association. Each volume presents a classic essay
by Freud with commentaries by prominent psychoanalytic teachers and
analysts from different theoretical backgrounds and geographical
locations."Observations on Transference-Love" may have been
inspired, say the contributors, by the unfortunate emotional
involvements of two of Freud's colleagues with female patients. In
his paper, Freud speaks of the inevitability of "transference-love"
in every well-conducted analysis, its important therapeutic
functions, and its potential hazards. Transference love is
discussed in the larger context of transference in general. The
essays illuminate a persistent problem in all modalities of
psychotherapy: unfortunate, often tragic, enactments of erotic
transference and countertransference. This volume also includes the
original essay by Freud.
