Although both Kleinian psychoanalysts and their critics take it for
granted that there is a therapeutic technique distinctive to the
Kleinian approach, comparatively little has been written about what
it is. In Melanie Klein Today, Volume 2, Elizabeth Bott Spillius
brings together classic and new papers to make it possible to
understand the main elements of the Kleinian therapeutic technique.
In recent years there have been important refinements in this
technique, notably in regard to the balance to be struck in
interpreting destructiveness, the use of the so-called part-object
language, and the precise ways to understand and interpret
'acting-in' and the role of the past in the present. This
collection draws these developments together and makes clear why an
integral part of contemporary Kleinian theory and practice is
concerned with the careful scrutiny of the therapeutic process
itself. The volume includes detailed accounts of clinical work with
both adults and children and takes further the theoretical ideas
discussed in Melanie Klein Today, Volume 1. The papers and the
editorial commentary in this book together comprise the most
illuminating and coherent rationale for the Kleinian technique yet
published. The ideas will be of interest to members of many
disciplines and a final section includes papers on the application
of the Kleinian approach in other fields of work.
