Sisällön kuvaus:
Hanna Segals work, especially on symbolism, aesthetics, dreams, and the exploration of psychotic thinking, has established her as an outstanding figure in psychoanalysis, particularly in psychoanalysis of the Kleinian tradition. In Dream, Phantasy and Art she reworks her ideas on these topics and brings them vividly alive in a new integration which links them afresh to the work of Freud, Klein, and Bion. Throughout the book the clinical illustrations she has selected brilliantly spotlight the theory, touching the imagination, and fixing even the most difficult ideas permanently in the readers mind. In a mutually enchancing relationship, theory and clinical example are combined, and then applied, to create the authors new and original theories of art and aesthetics. The book begins with Freuds theory of dreams, dramatically illustrated by Segals own clinical material, then moves on to a discussion of the concept of phantasy as used by Freud and Klein, and its relation to dreams and to thinking. This is followed by a discussion of thinking based on Segals seminal paper, Notes on symbol formation (1957), which she develops further by linking it with Bions work.Then comes a discussion, again with cogent examples, of pathological aspects of dreaming that occur when symbolic thinking fails. Finally, in the last two chapters, Segal returns to one of her earliest and most consistent interests - art, aesthetics, and the imagination - showing in a way both original and moving the relation between real and failed art. As Betty Joseph notes in her foreword, Segals writing, and in particular this book, does much to enrich psychoanalysis not only because of the clarity and intelligence of her thinking but also because of the depth and breadth of her interests and her clinical imagination.
