This book presents and elaborates on the rationale and implications
of the transformational dimension of psychoanalysis. In so doing,
it attempts to extend psychoanalytic theory and practice beyond
neurosis and beyond what were formerly thought to be the limits of
analytic understanding. Its theoretical vision sits at the
crossroads of the thinking of Freud, Bion, Winnicott, Green and the
Paris Psycho-Somatic School. Other sources include the
contributions of contemporary French psychoanalysts such as
Laplanche, Donnet, L. Kahn, P. Miller and the Botellas, along with
the work of Alvarez, Scarfone, Ferro, Ogden, and more. In
re-examining the very epistemological foundations of psychoanalysis
and their implications for a theory of psychic functioning, it
follows upon and extends the radical implications of Freud's 1937
Constructions paper, the thoughts of Bion on intuition and
Winnicott's understanding of the working through of the
consequences of early pre-verbal environmental failure. In so
doing, it makes a case for psychoanalysis as a powerful treatment
for borderline, primitive narcissistic, post-traumatic and other
character disorders and conditions - including perversions,
addictions, psychosomatic, autistic and panic disorders. By
presenting a revised metapsychology that is Freudian, contemporary
and clinically near, Affect, Representation and Language. Between
the Silence and the Cry offers practitioners at all levels of
analytic experience a way of understanding and treating the
expanding range of patients and disorders that present for
treatment in our modern era.
