Essential Readings from the Melanie Klein Archives: Original Papers
and Critical Reflections brings together a selection of previously
unpublished material by Melanie Klein, one of the key architects of
child psychoanalysis, and sets it in the context of the
contemporary understanding of her work, with contributions by a
range of leading Klein scholars. The book contains lectures,
letters, notes and an autobiography by Klein, as well as key pieces
of analysis on Klein's work from major Kleinian analysts, with
contributions from Claudia Frank, R.D. Hinshelwood, Jane Milton and
Maria Rhode based on wide-ranging research into Klein's archive.
Bringing the work of Claudia Frank to an English audience for the
first time, there is also a new chapter by Maria Rhode featuring
further case material on Klein's famous young patient 'Dick', the
subject of Klein's 1930 paper on symbolism, which is discussed in
relation to current ideas about the autistic spectrum. This
material fleshes out our understanding of Klein's thinking, shines
new light on the major features of her work, and the influences on
the analyst herself. Melanie Klein was a pioneering and sometimes
controversial figure within psychoanalysis, whose new approach to
child analysis and new understanding of our inner world were
revolutionary. Her large archive (now available online) contains
papers and drafts of papers, notes for lectures and seminars and a
vast amount of case material, all of which is of scientific
interest. Essential Readings from the Melanie Klein Archives will
be of great interest to Klein scholars, as well as to researchers
and readers in the wider history and development of psychoanalysis.
