Description
Time, Space and Phantasy explores the connections between time, space, phantasy and sexuality in clinical practice. It examines how aspects of a patient's unconscious past are actualised in the present, producing new meanings that can be re-translated to the past. Perelberg draws on Freud's Multi-dimensional model of temporality, suggesting that the individual is decentred and ruled by different temporalities, most of which escape their consciousness. This idea is echoed in Einstein's theory of relativity, which states that time depends on the relative position and speed of the observing individual. Perelberg shows how these concepts can be used to understand how time is constantly reshaped in the light of new events and experiences. This book will be of interest to psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, psychologists, and social workers who want to deepen their understanding of the human psyche and develop more effective therapeutic approaches.
