For the psychoanalyst, there exist certain rare and special moments
when emotion, imagination and thought combine to enable both
patient and analyst to reach a profound understanding of what is
happening between them. Such subjective, relational and clinical
experiences are perhaps as rare as they are unforgettable. Over the
past 20 years, Stefano Bolognini has concerned himself with
empathy, one of the most significant, yet hotly debated and
difficult to define concepts in the recent history of
psychoanalysis. In this book, the author traces the philosophical
origins of empathy and its development, with Freud and the first
psychoanalysts, up to its "re-discovery" in the 1950s, in parallel
with changing views on countertransference. Dr Bolognini then
offers his observations which take us to the very heart of
psychoanalysis, maintaining all the fecundity of the issues
discussed while illustrating the real complexity of the empathic
experience, the privileged transformative goal of the relationship
between patient and analyst.
