Reconsidering the Moveable Frame in Psychoanalysis explores the
idea of 'the frame' at a time when this concept is undergoing both
systematic revival and widespread transformation. It has always
been tempting to see the frame as a relatively static, finite and
definable feature of psychoanalytic work. At its most basic, the
frame establishes agreed upon conditions of undertaking
psychoanalytic work. But as this book shows, the frame has taken on
a protean quality. It is sometimes a source of stability and
sometimes a site of ethical regulation or discipline. It can be a
place of imaginative mobility, and in certain analytic hands, a
device for psychic work on projections and disavowals. Beginning
with a seminal essay on the frame by Jose Bleger, this book
includes commentary on that work and proceeds to explorations of
the frame across different psychoanalytic theories. The frame is
perhaps one of the spots in psychoanalysis where psyche and world
come into contact, a place where the psychoanalytic project is both
protected and challenged. Inevitably, extra-transferential forces
intrude onto the psychoanalytic frame, rendering it flexible and
fluid. Psychoanalysts and analysands, supervisors and candidates
are relying increasingly on virtual communication, a development
that has effected significant revisions of the classical
psychoanalytic frame. This book presents a dialogue among distinct
and different voices. It re-examines the state and status of the
frame, searching for its limits and sifting through its unexpected
contents whilst expanding upon the meaning, purview and state of
the frame. Reconsidering the Moveable Frame in Psychoanalysis will
appeal to all psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists
interested in how best to understand the frame and to use it most
effectively in their clinical practice.
