What in Winnicott s theoretical matrix was truly revolutionary
for psychoanalysis?
In this book, the editor and contributors provide a rare
in-depth analysis of his original work, and highlight the specifics
of his contribution to the concept of early psychic development
which revolutionised the theory and practice of psychoanalysis.
Including re-publications of selected Winnicott papers to set the
scene for the themes and explorations in subsequent chapters, the
book examines how Winnicott expanded Freud s work, and how his
discourse with Melanie Klein sharpened his thought and clinical
innovations. Divided into 3 sections, it covers:
- Introductory overviews on the evolution of Winnicott s
theoretical matrix
- Personal perspectives from eminent psychoanalysts on how
Winnicott s originality inspired their own work
- Further recent examinations and extensions including new
findings from the archives
Drawing on her own extensive knowledge of Winnicott and the
expertise of the distinguished contributors, Jan Abram shows us how
Winnicott s contribution constitutes a major psychoanalytic advance
to the concept of subjectivity. As such, it will be an inspiration
to experienced psychoanalysts, psychotherapists and all those
interested in human nature and emotional development.
