Psychoanalysis and the Experience of Homelessness
Psychoanalysis is often viewed as a practice relevant only to educated people of means. This article describes a project that matches psychoanalytically trained clinicians with unhoused and formerly unhoused adults in a large urban community. D. W. Winnicott's ideas about impingement, the holding environment, fear of breakdown, and careful monitoring of the analyst's interiority have proven to be most valuable theoretical and clinical tools. A de…
"A Return to Freud's "Complete Oedipus Complex
A Return to Freud's "Complete Oedipus Complex":Reclaiming the Negative Deborah Anna Luepnitz (bio) Criticism of psychoanalysis by feminists, queer theorists and others has long targeted Freud's Oedipus Complex. Writers from Luce Irigaray in Speculum de L'autre Femme (1978) to Carol Gilligan in The Birth of Pleasure (2004) have renounced Oedipal theory as not simply flawed but positively harmful—reproducing the culture of envy, violence, and heter…
Antigone and the Unsayable
The history of criticism of Sophocles' Antigone is characterized by idealization of its protagonist. In keeping with this elevation, scholars, for centuries, questioned the authenticity of a portion of Antigone's final lament (lines 904-912) which undermine her vaunted moral clarity. The author calls attention to the fact that this controversy seems to have been replaced by a solution equally problematic. That is, many adapters and directors, whi…
The name of the Piggle
On the 40th anniversary of its publication, the author re-reads Winnicott's The Piggle - a case of 'on demand analysis' with a child suffering from psychotic night terrors - in light of new information about the patient. Conversations between the author and 'Gabrielle' explore two areas not regarded as priorities by Winnicott: the transgenerational transmission of pathology/trauma, and the ways that language, in general - and given names, in part…
Of love and age
Thinking in the space between Winnicott and Lacan
The author, following André Green, maintains that the two most original psychoanalytic thinkers since Freud were Donald Winnicott and Jacques Lacan. Winnicott, it has been said, introduced the comic tradition into psychoanalysis, while Lacan sustained Freud's tragic/ironic vision. Years of mutual avoidance by their followers (especially of Lacan by Anglophone clinicians) has arguably diminished understanding of the full spectrum of psychoanalytic…

Which Aspects of Divorce Affect Children
Whereas most research on children of divorce has focused on clinical samples, the present exploratory study examined a normal sample of college students whose parents had divorced before the subjects were 16. Eighty-three percent of the subjects reported feeling stress during at least one phase of the divorce, i.e., predivorce, transition, or post-divorce. Half of the sample experienced most stress during the marital conflict, i.e., pre-divorce. …
