The constant and polymorphous development of the field of
psychoanalysis since its inception has led to the evolution of a
wide variety of psychoanalytic 'schools'. In seeking to find common
ground between them, Alberto Stefana examines the history of
countertransference, a concept which has developed from its origins
as an apparent obstacle, to become an essential tool for analysis,
and which has undergone profound changes in definition and in
clinical use. In History of Countertransference, Stefana follows
the development of this concept over time, exploring a very precise
trend which begins with the original notion put forward by Sigmund
Freud and leads to the ideas of Melanie Klein and the British
object relations school. The book explores the studies of specific
psychoanalytic theorists and endeavours to bring to light how the
input from each one may have been influenced by previous theories,
by the personal history of the analyst, and by their
historical-cultural context. By shedding light on how different
psychoanalytic groups work with countertransference, Stefana helps
the reader to understand the divergences that exist between them.
This unique study of a key psychoanalytical concept will be
essential reading for psychoanalysts in practice and in training,
and academics and students of psychoanalytic studies and the
history of psychology.
