Wilfred Bion's theories of dreaming, of the analytic situation, of
reality and everyday life, and even of the contact between the body
and the mind offer very different, and highly fruitful,
perspectives on lived experience. Yet very little of his work has
entered the field of visual culture, especially film and media
studies. Kelli Fuery offers an engaging overview of Bion's most
significant contribution to psychoanalysis- his theory of thinking-
and demonstrates its relevance for why we watch moving images.
Bion's theory of thinking is presented as an alternative model for
the examination of how we experience moving images and how they
work as tools which we use to help us 'think' emotional experience.
'Being Embedded' is a term used to identify and acknowledge the
link between thinking and emotional experience within the lived
reception of cinema. It is a concept that everyone can speak to as
already knowing, already having felt it - being embedded is at the
core of lived and thinking experience. This book offers a return to
psychoanalytic theory within moving image studies, contributing to
the recent works that have explored object relations psychoanalysis
within visual culture (specifically the writings of Klein and
Winnicott), but differs in its reference and examination of
previously overlooked, but highly pivotal, thinkers such as Bion,
Bollas and Ogden. A theorization of thinking as an affective
structure within moving image experience provides a fresh avenue
for psychoanalytic theory within visual culture. Wilfred Bion,
Thinking, and Emotional Experience with Moving Images will appeal
to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists, as well as
scholars and students of film and media studies, cultural studies
and cultural sociology and anthropology, visual culture, media
theory, philosophy, and psychosocial studies.
