During her lifetime, Francoise Dolto revolutionized the
psychoanalytic understanding of childhood. As an early pioneer, she
emphasized that the child is to be recognized from birth as a
person. As a gifted and innovative clinician, Dolto developed her
ideas about the unconscious image of the body. An image that is
unique to each individual and linked to both a person s history and
narcissism, rather then their physicality. It is the symbolic
incarnation of a person s desires. Dolto began her career as a
member of the IPA, was admired by Winnicot, close to Lacan and
influenced by Morgenstern. Her life witnessed an extraordinary
evolution from the conservatism of her parents, through the second
World War, to the turbulence of Paris in the 1950s and '60s. In the
succeeding years, Dolto made a number of original contributions to
the understanding of psychosis, neonatology, female sexuality,
education and religion. Although controversial, she was able to
write both for the general public and for professional colleagues.
In 1979, Dolto opened La Maison Verte, as a specialist center for
the practical application of her theories. Similar centers have
since been created around the world. Dolto continued to write and
teach until her death in 1988."
