Description
Betty Joseph's work has had a profound impact on the development of psychoanalytic technique in the Kleinian tradition. This collection of her most important papers provides a detailed examination of her thought and practice, focusing on the therapeutic process itself. The papers explore fundamental and controversial topics, including projective identification, transference and countertransference, unconscious phantasy, and Kleinian views on envy and the death instinct. By scrutinizing the therapeutic process, Joseph sheds light on the complexities of the human psyche and the ways in which the analyst's role can be refined. This collection is essential reading for anyone interested in psychoanalysis and its applications. The papers in this book represent a crucial part of Joseph's theory and practice, and offer valuable insights into the workings of the human mind.
