The conflict and dissociation between the Body and the Mind have determinant implications in the context of our current clinical practice, and are an important source of internal and relational disturbances. Body-Mind Dissociation in Psychoanalysis proposes the concept as a new hypothesis, different from traumatic dissociation or states of splitting. This approach opens the door to a clinical confrontation with extreme forms of mental disturbance, such as psychosis or borderline disorders, and strengthens the relational power of the analytic encounter, through a focus on the internal sensory/emotional axis in both analyst and analysand. The book details this importance of the analyst’s intrasubjective relationship with the analysand in constructing new developmental horizons, starting from the body-mind exchange of the two participants. Body-Mind Dissociation in Psychoanalysis will be of use to students, beginners in psychotherapy, mental health practitioners and seasoned psychoanalysts.
In contemporary psychoanalysis, a key concept and aim of clinical practice is to distinguish the boundaries of any mental state.

Formless Infinity: Clinical Explorations of Matte Blanco and Bion draws on the work of these two authors to explore how analysts can work with patients to reveal, understand and ultimately contain their primitive mental states. Riccardo Lombardi discusses the core concepts of the unconscious, the role of the body in analysis, time and death. He displays the clinical implications of Matte Blanco’s theoretical extension of Freud’s theory of the unconscio...

Dieses Buch beschäftigt sich mit Riccardo Lombardis Leben und Wirken, speziell mit seinem Beitrag zum 2. Vatikanum. Lombardis Bekehrung wird beschrieben, seine Predigttätigkeit, seine Enttäuschung und sein Leiden. Der Geist des Konzils und der geistesgeschichtliche Prozess davor werden analysiert.

Lombardi (Rom) lobt das Buch und wünscht, es möge "helfen, dass wir uns auch heute um unsere Bekehrung bemühen, um die Erneuerung der Kirche und um den Dienst am Reich Gottes."
Attivista del Partito popolare all’età di diciotto anni, antifascista della prima ora, dirigente azionista e poi del Psi, ingegnere di professione, Riccardo Lombardi è stato spesso presentato come un socialista inquieto e una coscienza critica della sinistra. Basandosi su una documentazione a stampa e d’archivio in buona parte inedita, il volume ricostruisce il primo trentennio, sinora poco studiato, del suo impegno politico, dall’esordio nelle leghe “bianche” della natia Sicilia durante i moti contadini del primo dopoguerra all’ingresso nel Partito socialista e alla sua prima esperienza come direttore dell’«Avanti!» all’indomani della sconfitta del Fronte popolare nelle ...
