  • The Known Citizen

    Lawrence Friedman, Lawrence M FriedmanARTICLEThe Journal of Interdisciplinary…2019References: 4

    In a sense, privacy is a medium, like air; we live within its embrace, to varying degrees, from our earliest days until our last. Its existence allows us to negotiate and contextualize our political and personal connections—in our relationship with the state as citizens, and with each other in our day-to-day dealings. It is a barrier that mediates the extent to which each of us is known or unknown to those around us.Moreover, like the air itself,…

  • 프로이트의 “회상, 반복 및 훈습” 논문에서 불연속적으로 구분되는 것과 연속적인 것에 관하여 (The Discrete and the Continuous in Freud’s “Remembering, Repeating and Working Through”)

    Open Access로렌스 프리드먼, Lawrence Friedman et al.ARTICLEJournal of the American…2015

    프로이트의 “회상, 반복 및 훈습” 논문에는 분석가로 하여금 마음을 하나의 활동의 연속체로 생각하게 하는 한편, 동시에 마음에서의 존재물 (실재물) 들에 관해 생각하도록 촉구하게 하는 주요한 구절 두 개가 있다. 분석가가 환자의 연속적인 행동으로부터 불연속적으로 구분되는 기억들을 찾게 하는 그 구절은 도발적인 역설 (패러독스) 이지만, 정신분석적인 관습 속으로 쉽게 편입되었다. 그러나 반대 방향에서 보면, 분석가가 행한 불연속적으로 구분되는 해석들로부터 환자가 자신의 긴장된 경험의 연속까지를 통틀어서 환자 자신의 길을 찾아가는 묘사는 대부분이 주로 진부하기 짝이 없게 되어있다. 이러한 회피가 일어나는 실제적인 이유의 하나를 제시하려고 한다

  • The Discrete and the Continuous in Freud’s “Remembering, Repeating and Working Through”

    Open AccessLawrence Friedman, Lawrence M FriedmanARTICLEJournal of the American…2014References: 12

    There are two crucial passages in Freud’s “Remembering, Repeating and Working Through” that require the analyst to think about entities in the mind while at the same time thinking about the mind as a continuum of activity. Although that is a challenging paradox, the passage that allows the analyst to find discrete memories in the patient’s continuous behavior was easily absorbed into psychoanalytic custom. In the reverse direction, however, the d…

    Open AccessLawrence Friedman, Lawrence M FriedmanARTICLEJournal of the American…2011Cited by: 4References: 7

    To avoid certain errors in practice, Charles Brenner offered an holistic substitute for the Freudian structural model of the mind. He used the term compromise formation ambiguously to refer to both actions and states, so as to render unnecessary what he considered artificial, judgmental attitudes embodied in images of psychic structures. He believed that a theory of conflicting structures transforms the phenomenological drama of the patient’s act…

    Open AccessLawrence Friedman, Lawrence M FriedmanARTICLEThe Psychoanalytic Quarterly2008Cited by: 5References: 5

    The analyst depicted in Freud's Papers on Technique (1911-1915) struggles to split the patient's stubborn desire by reframing it as memory. In contrast, after the structural theory was adopted, analysts could picture themselves as liberating rather than struggling with patients, since their design was to show that the patient's fears are unrealistic. But North American analysts have come to doubt their ability to rule on what is and isn't realist…

  • Is There Life After Enactment? The Idea of a Patient's Proper Work

    Open AccessLawrence Friedman, Lawrence M FriedmanARTICLEJournal of the American…2008Cited by: 4References: 17

    All talking therapies profit from a patient's deliberate work in treatment, for a number of reasons, each of which deserves separate study and reflection. This is as true for psychoanalysis as for other psychotherapies. But in psychoanalysis the idea of a patient's deliberate work is paradoxical and problematic, bringing special overt and covert benefits, but also risking countertransference hazards like those associated with the notion of therap…

  • The Delicate Balance of Work and Illusion in Psychoanalysis

    Open AccessLawrence Friedman, Lawrence M FriedmanARTICLEThe Psychoanalytic Quarterly2007Cited by: 6References: 1

    One might say that the analyst counts on the patient's unconscious work, while conscious work is, to some extent, just one more thing to be deconstructed (analyzed). Analyst and patient, however, cannot avoid thinking that they are working on a common project, partly because the image of a mutual work distracts from the painfully uncertain illusion that the analyst is really offering a lasting, familial sort of bond, and partly because the sense …

  • What Is Psychoanalysis

    Open AccessLawrence Friedman, Lawrence M FriedmanARTICLEThe Psychoanalytic Quarterly2006Cited by: 9References: 9

    Although we are now less inclined to argue about whose treatment is entitled to be called psychoanalysis, we will understand current debates better if we revisualize what originally made psychoanalysis different from other treatments. At its birth, psychoanalysis twisted the common-sense treatments it grew out of into very peculiar shapes. In reaction to that extreme peculiarity, a process of normalizing began almost immediately and continues to …

  • Flirting with Virtual Reality

    Open AccessLawrence Friedman, Lawrence M FriedmanARTICLEThe Psychoanalytic Quarterly2005Cited by: 8References: 7

    Psychoanalysis encourages patients to experience a virtual reality of the psychoanalytic relationship, in which both image and wish can be experimented with. Originally, the patient's awareness was supposed to move back and forth between the virtual and the actual, in a flickering and uncertain fashion. That is uncomfortable, and analysts have often preferred the domain of virtuality or of actuality, or have denied the distinction altogether. Rec…

  • Is There a Special Psychoanalytic Love

    Open AccessLawrence Friedman, Lawrence M FriedmanARTICLEJournal of the American…2005Cited by: 5References: 8

    Although the analyst's role mandates a degree of detachment, analysts have often said that they offer patients a special kind of love. They have tended to equate that love with understanding, thus neutralizing the paradox but also diluting the love. When something more resembling a loving affect is sought, the suggestions include the love a scholar feels for his subject, the love that accompanies immersion in great literature, and love that is se…
