What is it to listen? How do we hear? How do we allow meanings to
emerge between each other? 'This book is about what Freud called
"freely" or "evenly suspended attention", a form of listening, a
kind of receptive incomprehension, which is fundamental and
mandatory for the practice of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy. The
author steps outside the usual parameters of psychoanalytic writing
and explores how works of art and literature which elicit and
require such listening began to appear in Europe, in abundance,
from the late eighteenth-century onwards. Uncertainties, Mysteries,
Doubts is a timely reminder, in the present era of audit and
manualisation, of some of psychoanalysis's deep and living cultural
roots. It hopes- by immersing the reader in the emotional, critical
and contextual worlds of some artists and poets of Romanticism- to
help psychotherapists, psychoanalysts, and counsellors in the
endless challenge of staying open to their clients and patients,
faced as we all are, therapists and clients alike, by multiple
pressures to knowledgeable closure.
