A Beholder's Share demonstrates how a sense of reality is evoked in
the unpredictable space between imagination and adaptation. The
world calls forth something in each of us-a beholder's share-which
in turn calls forth something in the world. Though usually viewed
as opposites, imagination and reality make uneasy but necessary
bedfellows. Part I of A Beholder's Share shows how fantasy
generates novelty by creating versions of what is already known,
while imagination allows what seems familiar to be seen afresh.
Goldman's essays offer unexpected takes on common clinical
encounters: clashes of belief, the search for generational
dialogue, the awkward discomfort of feeling like a fake, the
problem of how and when to end analysis, the strains of working
with psychotic anxieties. Part II, 'Winnicott's Living Legacy,'
illuminates Winnicott's preoccupation with difficulties inherent in
contact with reality. These chapters bring to life Winnicott's
personal struggle with an area of experience his own two analyses
failed to touch, the tangled relationship with Masud Khan, his
recognition of dissociation as "a queer kind of truth," and how
Romantic poets shaped Winnicott's view of what is felt as real.
Bringing together Dodi Goldman's seminal and new writings, A
Beholder's Share will appeal to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic
psychotherapists, as well as students and teachers of the arts,
literature, and humanities.
