Lectures on Technique by Melanie Klein
Lectures on Technique by Melanie Klein is based on a series of six lectures given by Melanie Klein to students at the British Psychoanalytical Society in 1936 and repeated several times in subsequent years.

Melanie Klein, who moved to England from Berlin in 1927, became one of the lead...
Reading Melanie Klein
Kleinian psychoanalysis has recently experienced a renaissance in academic and clinical circles. Reading Melanie Klein responds to the upsurge of interest in her work by bringing together the most innovative and challenging essays on Kleinian thought from the last two decades. The book features material which appears here for the first time in English, and several newly written chapters.

Yesterday is a Lost Country
They were pioneers who went to the colonies and later became regarded as settlers on disputed land. Uhuru, wars of liberation, decolonisation and terror drove many of them away. Maureen Sneddon-Barnard was one of these people. She was driven from Kenya by the Mau Mau. In Rhodesia she farmed again and experienced loss all over again. After Rhodesia had become Zimbabwe, she received the dreaded eviction notice that forced farmers all over the country off their land. In a small, brown school case she took with her diaries and newspaper clippings that told the story of her life. This, at least, she could leave to her children, telling of the courage, the risks, the endurance, the joys and sorrows. She knew and loved Africa in all its grandeur, but the winds of change were to blow her and her people’s footsteps away.
