As both a theoretician and clinician, Donald Winnicott left a
legacy of concepts, ideas and attitudes whose importance continues
to grow. In this volume the editors have assembled ninety-two works
half of them previously unpublished that will be of particular
interest to psychoanalysts and psychotherapists. "Psycho-Analytic
Explorations" will stand as the sourcebook of Winnicott s thought
for those in his own field.This collection spans the years from
World War II to Winnicott s death in 1971, and testifies to the
wide range of his intellectual interests and clinical experience.
It includes previously unpublished critiques of the ideas of
Melanie Klein and comments on the work of other psychoanalysts, as
well as clinical examples, case studies, and gems of thought
extracted from his files. Many of the topics will be of direct use
to clinicians: for example, play in the analytic situation, the use
of silence; psychosomatic disorder, interpretation in analysis, and
seven chapters on psychotherapy with children and adolescents.
Other chapters treat such themes as the fate of the transitional
object, fear of breakdown, the split-off male and female elements,
the basis for self in body. Also included are Winnicott s writing
on convulsion therapy and leucotomy; his memoir by his widow,
Clare; and, as a postscript, a talk he gave late in life discussing
the influences that shaped his work."
