This volume introduces the psychoanalyst Melanie Klein to the
general field of education and traces her theories of mental life
as an emotional situation, through to problems of self/other
relations in our own time. The case is made for Klein's relevance
and the difficulties her theories pose to the activities of
learning and pedagogical relation. Klein's vocabulary-the
paranoid/schizoid and depressive positions, phantasy, object
relations, projective identification, anxiety, envy, and the urge
for reparation and gratitude- are discussed in terms of their
evolution and the designs of her main questions, all stemming from
the problem of inhibition. Her contribution to an understanding of
symbolization and the shift from concrete thinking to greater
freedom of mind is analyzed. The essay develops the following
questions: why is learning an emotional situation? How did Klein's
life and larger history influence her views? What are her central
theories of mental life? Why did Klein focus on anxiety and
phantasies as making up the life of the mind? What is object
relations theory? And, what does Klein's model of the self proffer
to contemporary education in schools and in universities?
