Unknowable, Unspeakable, and Unsprung delves into the mysteries of
scandalous behavior- behavior that can seem shocking, unfathomable,
or self-destructive - that is outrageous and offensive on the one
hand, yet fascinating and exciting on the other. In the process,
this anthology asks fundamental questions about the self: what the
self is allowed to be and do, what must be disallowed, and what
remains unknown. Clinicians strive to know their patients' selves,
and their own, as fully as possible, while also facing the
inevitable riddles these selves present. Covering topics ranging
from trauma, politics, the analyst's subjectivity, and eating
disorders and the body, to self-revelation, secrets, evil, and
boundary issues, a distinguished group of authors bring the theory,
practice, and application of contemporary psychoanalysis to life.
In doing so, they use psychoanalytic perspectives not only to
illuminate struggles that afflict patients seeking treatment, but
to shed light, more broadly, on contemporary human dilemmas. This
collection offers not a unified voice, but rather the sound of
many, each in its own way trying to articulate the indescribable,
the unwanted, and the off limits. It is a book that raises more
questions than can be answered, complicates as much as clarifies,
and contains the essential paradox of trying to talk about aspects
of clinical and human experience that can never be fully seen or
known. Unknowable, Unspeakable, and Unsprung offers invaluable
reading to interested mental health professionals as well as to
anyone intrigued by the secrets of the self.
