  • The Kleinian Development Part 3

    The Clinical Significance of the Work of Bion

    Meltzer describes the series of lectures on Freud, Klein and Bion known as The Kleinian Development as both a quest for personal integration into some kind of 'combined internal psychoanalytic object', under whose aegis he personally could aspire to work, and as a vademecum for students.

  • Dream Life

    A Re-examination of the Psychoanalytic Theory and Technique

    'Dreams are my landscape', said Meltzer. In this book, he reviews the metapsychology of dream theory through Freud, Klein and Bion and re-establishes psychoanalysis as the art of reading dreams, and dream-life as the core of mental processes. Meltzer views dream life as a continuum within each personality, of which the psychoanalyst is offered a privileged sampling, just as the child analyst is ... Read more

  • The Psychoanalytical Process

    This classic account sets forth an integrated concept of the 'natural history' of the psychoanalytical process, emerging in the light of experience gained in the child-analytical playroom, and applied to the more complicated phenomena of adult patients. The Kleinian concepts of projective identification and the internal world are expanded by the Meltzerian view of the 'natural history' of an ... Read more

  • The Apprehension of Beauty

    The Role of Aesthetic Conflict in Development, Art and Violence

    In this book Donald Meltzer formulates his concept of 'aesthetic conflict', at the heart of personality development. Clinical material interdigitates with literary criticism by Meg Harris Williams illustrating the same theme. The revised psychoanalytic model of the mind that results suggests how the aesthetic aspects of just being born can have simultaneously a most violent and a most tender ... Read more

  • Explorations in Autism

    A Psychoanalytical Study

    Explorations in Autism is a turning-point in both the understanding of and the clinical approach to autism. The clinical material gradually unveils the geography of the internal mother (which proved crucial for the development of Meltzer's 'claustrum' theory) and allowed him to draft, for the first time in psychoanalysis, a theory of the dimensionality of mental life. At the same time this sheds a ... Read more
