In May 2015, the 1st IWA Congress and the XX Winnicott International Colloquium was held in the city of São Paulo. Members of the International Winnicott Association (IWA) from different countries met to discuss the relationship between Winnicott's thought and the future of psychoanalysis. This book contains most of the papers delivered on that occasion and reflects the diversity of approaches marking the event. In the following pages the reader will find multiple ways of thinking about the place of Winnicott's theory and practice in the face of the future of psychoanalysis and the challenges – current and future – raised by our society. Loparic, Z. e Ribeiro, V. C (orgs.): Winnicott and the Future of Psychoanalysis. São Paulo: DWW editorial, 2017. An IWA e-book.

Letters to a Young Psychoanalyst

Written in the form of letters from an experienced analyst to a young colleague, Letters to a Young Psychoanalyst expands the psychoanalytic frame to include South American, French, and British theory, and examine a wide variety of theoretical and clinical topics. Letters to a Young Psychoanalyst is ground-breaking in more than one respect. It re-examines major psychoanalytic theories in the light of rich clinical practice, and in the light of the practice of friendship, whilst portraying the practice of analysis as the choice of a personal code of ethics. Covering such core issues as transference, trauma, hysteria, the influence of the mother, and love and hate, and drawing on the work of n...

Michael Balint is above all known for the "Balint Groups", which came to be a generic term for groups involved with the training of doctors and caregivers in the patient-caregiver relationship. Despite this, the origin and full import of his work has been somewhat overlooked. Hélène Oppenheim-Gluckman provides us with a concise account of how reading Balint has enriched psychoanalytic theory and its practice by broadening the indications for the psychoanalytic cure and the debate on psychotherapies and the training to the professional care-giver-patient relation. Reading Michael Balint: A pragmatic clinician shows how Balint must be considered as one of the major figures in the British Ind...

Paediatric psychoanalyst Donald W. Winnicott is widely recognized as a remarkable clinician.

Winnicott offers all readers a glimpse of what Winnicott brings to the understanding of the human being, and will appeal to students new to his work, as well as practitioners looking for a concise overview of his work.

  • Publisher: Routledge

Winnicott was continually innovating, inventing, and proposing unexpected solutions in his analytical work whenever he noticed that clinical experience "didn't stick to the theory". This approach can make his work seem rather diffuse, with concepts that are sometimes confusing and needing to be clarified. Laura Dethiville has taken on the task of re-evaluating and explaining the principal rudiments of his theories, such as the transitional object, the self, the false self, the importance of environment, and dissociation. She also reveals how Winnicott showed himself to be a forerunner in the care of symptomatic illness in our society, including his innovative treatment of loss of identity, anorexia or bulimia, delinquency, psychosomatic illness, and school disorders. In this book the author has succeeded in avoiding psychoanalytic jargon and, although initially aimed at psychoanalysts, it is also accessible for educators, child carers, paediatricians, and to all those interested in early childhood, the constitution of the psyche, and the constitution of the interpersonal link.

  • Publisher: Routledge

Psychoanalysis with Wilfred R. Bion is the product of François Lévy’s efforts over a period of twenty years to represent clearly the classical elements and the innovatory propositions of the thought and work of Bion, who offers both new and modified ways of practising and thinking about the psychoanalytic experience. Bion’s thought, methodical and intuitive, gave rise to profound modifications in the approach to the psychology of groups, clinical work with psychoses, and the conception of the genesis of thought. Some of his original notions – psychic growth, processes of thinking, transformations, alpha function, maternal reverie – constitute valuable tools for rethinking psychoana...

Une ergologie

À partir de la lecture clinique du jeu spontané de l’enfant, de l’ergothérapie, de textes anthropologiques, Une ergologie met en lumière les enjeux voilés de l’activité humaine. L’ouvrage différencie l’activité des activités de l’homme, l’ergologie de l’ergonomie, et montre combien le concept de transitionnalité introduit par D. W. Winnicott est un outil de compréhension du rôle de l’environnement dans la construction du dynamisme subjectif. Articulant l’activité individuelle et l’activité sociale, il met en évidence la façon dont le lien psychique et le lien social se construisent dans un seul et même mouvement, et donne des outils pour penser les moments de tension ou d’échec dans la conduite de tâches éducatives, thérapeutiques ou sociales. Ce livre intéressera les ergothérapeutes, les éducateurs, les personnes dont le métier est relationnel ainsi que les chercheurs en anthropologie, sociologie ou philosophie de l’action.
