In this book, Abram proposes and elaborates the dual concept of an
intrapsychic surviving and non surviving object and examines how
psychic survival-of-the-object places the early m/Other at the
centre of the nascent psyche before innate factors are relevant.
Abram's clinical-theoretical elaborations advance several of
Winnicott's key concepts. Moreover, the clinical illustrations show
how her advances arise out of the transference-countertransference
matrix of the analyzing situation. Chapter by chapter the reader
witnesses the evolution of her proposals that not only enhance an
appreciation of Winnicott's original clinical paradigm but also
demonstrate how much more there is to glean from his texts
especially in the contemporary consulting room. The Surviving
Object comprises 8 chapters covering themes such as: the
incommunicado self; violation of the self; the paradox of
communication; terror at the roots of non survival; an implicit
theory of desire; the fear of WOMAN underlying misogyny; the
meaning of infantile sexuality; the 'father in the nursing mother's
mind' as an 'integrate' in the nascent psyche; formlessness
preceding integration; a theory of madness. The volume will appeal
to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytically-informed psychotherapists
of all levels who are inspired by clinical psychoanalysis and the
study of human nature.
