Substantial contributions from an internationally varied host of
authors use newly available material to develop novel aspects of
Fairbairn s life and theory, reviewing the basic ideas of his
theory, clinical application, and new developments built on his
object relations vision of psychoanalysis. Comprising thirty-nine
papers, thirty-six of which are original to this volume, the book
is divided into four main sections historical, clinical,
theoretical and applied. Fairbairn s contribution to
object-relations theory is rehearsed and the future development of
Fairbairn s work is considered. Fairbairn s relationship with
Guntrip and Winnicott is explored, his influence on a philosophical
and a clinical understanding of multiplicity is assessed, his
social and historical papers are mined for his views on prejudice
and the social order, and new models of clinical configurations
suggested. Fairbairn s relationship with and influence on Mitchell
is investigated from different perspectives and his position within
Scottish and psychoanalytic history also developed. Fairbairn s
contribution to couple therapy, to an understanding of the Oedipus
situation, to the acceptance and understanding of literary works
and to child welfare are all broached. The influence of religion
and Fairbairn s own understanding of his gender identity are
explored based on newly available documents including some
self-analytic notes. Fairbairn s influence in South America and in
particular Argentina is manifest in a variety of contributions, and
his significant but generally forgotten or ignored contribution to
psychoanalytic aesthetics is assessed."
