The importance of knowing and being known is at the heart of the
human experience and has always been the core of the psychoanalytic
enterprise. Freud named his central Oedipal construct after
Sophocles' great play that dramatically encapsulated the desire,
difficulty, and dangers involved in knowing and being known.
Psychoanalysis' founder developed a methodology to facilitate
unconscious material becoming conscious, that is, making the
unknown known to help us better understand ourselves and our
relational lives, including psychic trauma, and multigenerational
histories. This book will stimulate readers to contemplate knowing
and being known from multiple perspectives. It bursts with
thought-provoking ideas and intriguing cases illuminated by
penetrating reflections from diverse theoretical perspectives. It
will sensitize readers to this theme's omnipresent, varied
importance in the clinical setting and throughout life.
Accomplished contributors discuss a wide variety of fascinating
topics, illustrated by rich clinical material. Their contributions
are grouped under these headings: Knowing through dreams; Knowing
through appearances; Dreading and longing to be known; The
analyst's ways of knowing and communicating; Knowing in the
contemporary sociocultural context; The known analyst; and No
longer known. Readers will find each section deeply informative,
stimulating thought, insights, and ideas for clinical practice.
Psychoanalytic Explorations in Knowing and Being Known will appeal
to psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, psychologists, psychiatrists,
clinical social workers, counselors, students in these disciplines,
and members of related scholarly communities.
