On Supervising the Pregnant Psychoanalytic Candidate
The role of the psychoanalytic supervisor is complicated when the psychoanalytic candidate is pregnant. Pregnancy is a special event that brings a unique set of opportunities, as well as problems, into the analysis, though in the past, it was usually regarded only as an impediment. The goal of this paper is to help the supervisor of the pregnant candidate to seize the opportunities and mitigate the problems. The authors make practical suggestions…
The rape of Medusa in the temple of Athena
The relationship between the Greek goddess Athena and her father Zeus, together with the competitive hostility she displays towards other females, is presented as illustrating some previously neglected aspects of triangular developmental conflicts in the little girl. Literature on 'the Oedipus complex in the female' is reviewed and discussed. The mythological early histories of both Athena and the female monster Medusa are examined for the light …
Normal and Pathological Altruism
The psychoanalytic literature on altruism is sparse, although much has been written on this topic from a sociobiological perspective. Freud (1917) first described the concept in “Libido Theory and Narcissism.” In 1946 Anna Freud coined the term “altruistic surrender” to describe the psychodynamics of altruistic behavior in a group of inhibited individuals who were neurotically driven to do good for others. The usefulness and clinical applicabilit…

An Empirical Study of the Psychodynamics of Suicide
This paper presents results from an empirical study of four key psychodynamic concepts (self-directed aggression, object loss, ego functioning disturbance, pathological object relations) of suicidal behavior. The sample consists of hospitalized psychiatric patients following a suicide attempt (attempters: n = 52) and demographically similar hospitalized psychiatric patients with no history of suicidal behavior (controls: n = 47). The study was de…
On Those Wrecked By Success
Freud's description of those wrecked by success outlines conflicted oedipal triumph as the central underlying dynamic in this character type. It does not distinguish those patients who avoid success from those driven to achieve and then wreck their success. We present a complex picture that we believe is prototypic of patients who destroy their success. A clinical case illustrates our point of view. We emphasize the developmental problems we beli…
The Analytic Surface
A Sadomasochistic Transference
The development of a rageful sadomasochistic transference early in an analysis is presented. We describe key interventions that foster its resolution and offer a reconstruction of the patient's early life, focusing on difficulty in the rapprochement phase. We believe that the intense and difficult to manage sadomasochistic transference was linked to a repudiation of both preoedipal and oedipal triangulation, resulting in the perpetuation of a hos…
