- transcending the caesura as Bion’s theoretical method
- hypochondria as de-subjectivation and narrative genre in analysis
- the aesthetic conflict and alfa function
- Bion’s search for ambiguity
- the casting of characters in the analytic dialogue
- metaphor of text and translation in Freud and Bion.
Yet the book has an even more specific objective, focusing attention as it does on the central importance of emotions in mental life and of aesthetic experience as the model of what truly happens in analysis. This is an aspect which the author rediscovers and explores in the thought of Bion and his successors, and which he regards as a way of investigating the deepest and most primitive levels of mental life. This book will be of great interest to psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, and psychotherapists.
