This five-session seminar, organized during 1946-47 for the
psychiatric residents at Sheppard-Pratt, specifically covered the
case of a young male schizophrenic who was being treated by Dr.
Robert Kvarnes, then a participating resident. Each session
included the case presentation by Dr. Kvarnes, the posing of a
discussion question by Sullivan, his exchanges with the
participants, and his extended closing comments on major clinical
issues. The publication of this seminar provides a demonstration of
Sullivan at work as a teacher. His unusual sensitivity to young
male schizophrenics and his delicacy in perceiving and reacting to
anxiety in therapeutic interactions are reflected in the seminar.
The contemporary discussions, conducted by Dr. Kvarnes, now
director of the Washington School of Psychiatry, Washington, D.C.,
follow each of the original seminar sessions, consider the seminar
content itself, and show the differences that twenty-five years
have made in the various trends in therapy and in salient social
programs. Also included is additional historical material about the
seminar the participants, and Sullivan.
