Description
The Oedipus Complex Today: Clinical Implications is a collection of papers exploring the Kleinian conception of the Oedipus complex and its ongoing impact on clinical practice. Originally presented at the Melanie Klein Conference in 1987, these papers have been gathered together for publication. The conference, jointly organized by Professor J. Sandler and Mrs. Ruth Riesenberg-Malcolm, brought together leading figures to discuss modern Kleinian views on the Oedipus complex. The resulting book includes an expanded version of Dr Hanna Segal's introduction, as well as a reprint of Melanie Klein's 1945 paper 'The Oedipus Complex in the Light of Early Anxieties'. This collection provides valuable insights into the ongoing relevance of Kleinian theory in contemporary psychoanalysis. With contributions from renowned authors Ronald Britton, Michael Feldman and Edna O'Shaughnessy, The Oedipus Complex Today offers a unique perspective on this enduring psychological concept.
