Reading Bion's Transformations (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Reading Bion's Transformations is an in-depth reading of Bion's 1965 work, Transformations, and investigates the epistemological concept of "O" introduced by Bion.

Throughout the book, Bion's conceptual and unconventional text is discussed step-by-step, with a focus on the first three and last three chapters. The epistemological references are highlighted and analysed, allowing the reader insight into how to do a deconstructive psychoanalytic reading, acknowledging that Bion raised psychoanalytical thought and practice to new levels. The authors' reading both de-focuses and re-focuses several theoretical statutes of O discussed by Bion in 1965.

Reading Bion's Transformations is an essential read for those approaching Bion's work for the first time, as well as those seeking to better understand his theories and the metapsychological and epistemological impact of the concept of transformation within psychoanalysis.

Rezensionen

"This book will be of interest to those who are approaching Bion for the first time, to those who are specifically studying Bion's Transformations, but also to a general psychoanalytic readership who are interested in the metapsychological and epistemological implications of the concept of transformation. I find this book particularly well calibrated towards a broad readership: the academic specialist, the well-read and mature psychoanalytic reader, and the novice. In this book, the authors apply a distinctive reading method specifically to Bion's Transformations (1965). It is a psychoanalytic deconstructive reading suitable to the exercise of (clinical) imagination, parameterized by consistent epistemological principles, the authors constantly focuses and defocuses the diverse statutes of the concept of transformations, with his vast and refined philosophical knowledge. This book will inspire many readings and re-readings of Bion, a seminal author."
