The Analyst's Ear and the Critic's Eye is the first volume of
literary criticism to be co-authored by a practicing psychoanalyst
and a literary critic. The result of this unique collaboration is a
lively conversation that not only demonstrates what is most
fundamental to each discipline, but creates a joint perspective on
reading literature that neither discipline alone can achieve. This
book radically redefines the relationship between psychoanalysis
and literary studies in a way that revitalizes the conversation
between the two fields. This is achieved, in part, by providing
richly textured descriptions of analytic work. These clinical
illustrations bring to life the intersubjective dimension of
analytic practice, which is integral to the book's original
conception of psychoanalytic literary criticism. In their readings
of seminal works of American and European literature, the authors
address questions that are fundamental to psychoanalysis, literary
studies, and the future of psychoanalytic literary criticism: -What
is psychoanalytic literary criticism? -Which concepts are most
fundamental to psychoanalytic theory? -What is the role of
psychoanalytic theory in reading literature? -How does an analyst's
clinical experience shape the way he reads? -How might literary
critics make use of the analyst's experience with his patients?
-What might psychoanalysts learn from the ways professional
literary critics read? This volume provides cutting edge work which
will breathe new life into psychoanalytic ways of reading, free
from technical language, yet drawing upon what is most fundamental
to psychoanalytic theory and practice. It will be of great interest
to mental health professionals, literary scholars and those
studying psychoanalysis and literature.
