DESCRIPTION:
Gabbard, MD, former Joint Editor-in-Chief, International Journal of Psychoanalysis.. What makes it work? What impinges on our work? The influence of cyberspace is extensively considered, reminding us that the world around us has changed, and the analytic process can no longer remain insulated from these changes. Co-editors Isaac Tylim and Adrienne Harris have chosen to begin their excursion with the classic work of Bleger on the analytic frame. From there the contributors span the globe, both in the geographical and the theoretical sense, bringing to bear diverse views of where we stand today in considering the structure of the psychoanalytic dialogue.

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 can be a place of imaginative mobility, and in certain analytic hands, a device for psychic work on projections and disavowals. It has always been tempting to see the frame as a relatively static, finite and definable feature of psychoanalytic work. 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. This book presents a dialogue among distinct and different voices. Inevitably, extra-transferential forces intrude onto the psychoanalyti
