March 11, 2022 — Separateness and connection

[27 pages]

[27 pages + 19 suggested]

The papers we read for today are from Winnicott not just the theorist but the clinician. While they show his personal style, they also illustrate his understanding of what happens in the clinical encounter, and how it reflects and recapitulates the developmental and psychic themes of our patients’ lives. In these papers we find references to regression, dependence, aliveness, holding, isolation, and relating. We also see Winnicott building up his own ideas over time, giving us a chance to question the ways his theories shaped psychoanalytic practice.
