When re-experienced in analysis, the painful awareness of solitude—the sense of being a separate person—can be better tolerated and can become a rich source of personal creativity. Many analysts have written about such anxieties and in The Taming of Solitude Jean-Michel Quinodoz brings together the views of Freud, Klein, Hanna Segal, W.R.D.Fairbairn, D.W. Winnicott, Anna Freud, Margaret Mahler, Heinz Kohut, John Bowlby and others, presenting a comprehensive approach to the experience of loneliness, a universal phenomenon which can be observed in everyday life and in any therapeutic situation. In the first part of the book the author uses a clinical example to illustrate how a patient expresses various forms of separation anxiety, and how such anxiety can be transformed during the psychoanalytic process. The second part carefully examines the major psychoanalytic views on the topic and the third part explores several technical and clinical aspects of the problems which arise from the interpretation of separation anxiety. Finally, the author introduces a new concept, ‘buoyancy’, to express how a successful working through of separation anxiety can lead to a capacity to ‘carry’ oneself at the end of an analysis. Written with clarity and simplicity, The Taming of Solitude will be of great interest to all psychoanalysts and therapists. Jean-Michel Quinodoz is a psychoanalyst in private practice and Consultant Psychiatrist at the Department of Psychiatry, University of Geneva. He is also Editor for Europe of the International Journal of Psycho-Analysis. < previous page_i next page > page cover next page > Cover title: The Taming of Solitude : Separation Anxiety in Psychoanalysis New Library of Psychoanalysis ; 20 author: Quinodoz, Jean-Michel. publisher: Taylor & Francis Routledge isbn10 | asin: print isbn13: 9780203376386 ebook isbn13: 9780203359624 language: English subject Separation anxiety, Psychoanalysis, Psychotherapist and patient, Anxiety, Separation, Psychoanalytic Therapy, Object Attachment, Professional-Patient Relations, Psychoanalysis publication date: 1993 lcc: RC489.S45Q5513 1993eb ddc: 616.89/17 subject: Separation anxiety, Psychoanalysis, Psychotherapist and patient, Anxiety, Separation, Psychoanalytic Therapy, Object Attachment, Professional-Patient Relations, Psychoanalysis cover next page > < previous page_ii next page > page Page ii The New Library of Psychoanalysis was launched in 1987 in association with the Institute of Psycho-Analysis, London. Its purpose is to facilitate a greater and more widespread appreciation of what psychoanalysis is really about and to provide a forum for increasing mutual understanding between psychoanalysts and those working in other disciplines such as history, linguistics, literature, medicine, philosophy, psychology, and the social sciences. It is intended that the titles selected for publication in the series should deepen and develop psychoanalytic thinking and technique, contribute to psychoanalysis from outside, or contribute to other disciplines from a psychoanalytical perspective. The Institute, together with the British Psycho-Analytical Society, runs a low-fee psychoanalytic clinic, organizes lectures and scientific events concerned with psychoanalysis, publishes the International Journal of Psycho-Analysis and the International Review of Psycho- Analysis, and runs the only training course in the UK in psychoanalysis leading to membership of the International Psychoanalytical Association—the body which preserves internationally agreed standards of training, of professional entry, and of professional ethics and practice for psychoanalysis as initiated and developed by Sigmund Freud. Distinguished members of the Institute have included Michael Balint, Wilfred Bion, Ronald Fairbairn, Anna Freud, Ernest Jones, Melanie Klein, John Rickman, and Donald Winnicott. Volumes 1–11 in the series have been prepared under the general editorship of David Tuckett, with Ronald Britton and Eglé Laufer as associate editors. Subsequent volumes are under the general editorship of Elizabeth Bott Spillius, with, from Volume 17, Donald Campbell, Michael Parsons, Rosine Jozef Perelberg and David Taylor as associate editors. < previous page_ii next page > page < previous page_iii next page > page Page iii ALSO IN THIS SERIES 1 Impasse and Interpretation Herbert Rosenfeld 2 Psychoanalysis and Discourse Patrick Mahoney 3 The Suppressed Madness of Sane Men Marion Milner 4 The Riddle of Freud Estelle Roith 5 Thinking, Feeling, and Being Ignacio Matte-Blanco 6 The Theatre of the Dream Salomon Resnik 7 Melanie Klein Today: Volume 1, Mainly Theory Edited by Elizabeth Bott Spillius 8 Melanie Klein Today: Volume 2, Mainly Practice Edited by Elizabeth Bott Spillius 9 Psychic Equilibrium and Psychic Change: Selected Papers of Betty Joseph Edited by Michael Feldman and Elizabeth Bott Spillius 10 About Children and Children-No-Longer: Collected Papers 1942–80 Paula Heimann.
