This book includes the development of the concept of "splitting"
from both metapsychological and clinical perspectives, emphasizing
the great importance of this topic for contemporary psychoanalysis.
Starting with the history of the concept, the book covers recent
French, English and Latin American theorizations on the theme. In
regard to clinical approaches it presents the relationship between
the "splitting" and complex clinical cases such as borderline,
perverse and psychosomatic conditions. The book also includes
aspects of "splitting" and virtual reality, as well as in traumatic
situations: factors so important in contemporary life. The premise
behind this work was to invite authors from different regions and
orientations to promote a fruitful debate on the theme, thus
enriching one of Sigmund Freud's most seminal concepts.
