by Goriano Rugi
Part of the Psychoanalytic Field Theory Book Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
Bion’s unfashionable thought is a challenge for our times in which anaesthesiaand mass thinking prevail.
The themes this book addresses are timeand the unconscious. In the present/past, the here and now reveals its relationship with theunredeemable time, which conditions our behaviour and is at the root of astate of hallucinosis in the form of a short-sighted view that is distorted bydeep-seated wounds.
This book also highlights the resonances with contemporaryepistemology and physics that underlie the new paradigm ofpsychoanalytic field theory.
The topic of the unconscious raises questionsabout its origin and the difference between the Bionian and the Freudianunconscious.
In Bion we see an evolutionary, process character emerge,with a double movement of repetition and expansion within a single systemin unstable equilibrium, for which there is no conscious feeling that doesnot also carry with it the shadow of the unconscious. Drawing on psychoanalytic and philosophical concepts this book is essentialreading for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, philosophers and anyonewho wishes to understand more fully what it means to be human.
