Bion and Intuition in the Clinical Setting focuses on Bion’s investigation of the intuitive approach to clinical data and lays out how Bion’s method encouraged constant effort by the analysts to relinquish its reliance on sensory and conceptual-verbal faculties to make room for intuition. Based on the work of the biannual Bion conference, this book includes contributions from the most eminent voices on Bion’s work. Spanning topics such as the primordial mind, intuitive comprehension and desire, the contributors in this volume illustrate how they incorporate the concept of intuition in their own clinical developments. Each chapter examines different elements of how Bion’s research approaches the difficulties faced by analysts in the approach and discrimination of primitive emotional levels in the patient-analyst communication. This book will be of key interest to analysts and analytic therapists of all schools and is an essential resource for those that follow the work of Bion.
This book includes material from Michael Eigen’s celebrated and long-running seminar series, to explore some of the classic and contemporary key concepts in psychoanalytic theory and practice. Drawing on the work of Winnicott, Bion and Lacan, Eigen explores key psychoanalytic themes which have risen to prominence over the last decade such as the place of politics in psychoanalysis, life, death and psychic deadness, and the role of lies and deception in the consulting room and our world. With over 50 years of experience in leading seminars and working psychoanalytically, Eigen's work is essential reading for all psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists.

Con contribuciones de Anne Alvarez, Joshua Durban, Jani Santamaría, Bernard Golse, Jeffrey L. Eaton, Didier Houzel, Howard B. Levine, Suzanne Maiello, Sylvain Missonnier, Bernd Nissen y Marganit Ofer, este libro contiene una extensa y rica teoría psicoanalítica acompañada de valiosas presentaciones de casos clínicos sobre fenómenos autistas y estados no representados y sobre la emergencia del self. La capacidad para crear representaciones psíquicas se considera un logro en el desarrollo. Sin esta capacidad, no es posible determinar significados y la falla de esta capacidad puede dar lugar a "vacíos psíquicos" y a "estados no representados" que pueden contribuir al desarrollo del aut...
Durante la pandemia del Covid 19, un grupo de colegas de la Zona Norte en América Latina fertilizamos la idea de Winnicott de que la creatividad significa celebrar el hecho de estar vivos y construimos un espacio científico abierto a todo colega. Convocamos la propuesta de Pichon Rivière (1971) que dice: "En tiempos de incertidumbre y desesperanza es imprescindible gestar proyectos colectivos desde donde planificar la esperanza junto a otros". Este libro recoge trabajos de psicoanalistas presentados en tres Encuentros Científicos realizados vía remota en los años 2020, 2021 y 2022. "La Virtualidad", fue el tema de 2020 organizado por la Federación Colombiana de Psicoanálisis; "Duelos...
Wilfred Bion described "O" as "the unknowable and the unreachable ultimate truth". In this fascinating collection, a range of authors offer their own theoretical, clinical and artistic approaches to exploring this enduring but mysterious idea. Drawn from contributions from the 8th International Bion Conference in 2014, the book examines how "O" can be experienced in all aspects of internal and external reality and within all relationships, from an individual relating to the mother to their emotional relationship with their self. It features insights into "O" drawn from the area of faith as well as its manifestations in clinical practice, while also included is a chapter exploring the links between Bion’s ideas and those of Winnicott, Lacan, Green and Freud. Featuring contributions from some of the world’s leading Bion scholars, this will be essential reading for any psychoanalyst interested in exploring the concept of "O", as well as scholars in philosophy and theology.
Este libro contiene reflexiones sobre dificultades que surgieron en mi experiencia clínica durante tratamientos psicoanalíticos. Muestra cómo, a partir de la resolución de esas dificultades iniciales, fueron emergiendo aspectos constructivos de los analizados que hasta entonces habían permanecido ocultos y desconocidos para el sujeto. Un elemento común a distintos capítulos reside en el estudio de la patología narcisista. También son explorados los acuerdos inconscientes que pueden establecerse entre analizado y analista que dan lugar a que aspectos significativos de la conflictiva del analizado sean excluidos de la investigación analítica. Entre otros temas clínicos, se concede particular importancia a las dificultades en la simbolización, a la representación del límite entre el sujeto y el otro, a la problemática del duelo, y a las consecuencias del trauma tal como este se manifiesta en las neurosis y en las psicosis. También es jerarquizada la investigación y reconstrucción del lado oscuro y desconocido de la historia del sujeto, de sus enigmas y sus vínculos intrafamiliares que difieren de su versión manifiesta.
"Estive diversas vezes em um ou outro dos grandes países da América do Sul e, nessas ocasiões, pude fazer trocas numerosas e frutíferas com os psicanalistas e clínicos sul-americanos. Devo dizer que sempre aprendi muito no contato com eles, e que a acolhida sempre muito favorável, até mesmo entusiasta, às minhas reflexões clínicas e teóricas me encorajou a prossegui-las e desenvolvê-las. Por isso mesmo, agradeço infinitamente aos psicanalistas que me deram a honra do convite a vir trocar com eles, e, mais ainda, àqueles que contribuíram na elaboração deste livro." - René Roussillon.
