ENACTMENT IN PSYCHOANALYSIS

The book is dedicated to Jeremy Safran and Lewis Aron, whose recent loss drove the editors as well as the publisher to gather these contributions about enactment, a topic to whom Safran and Aron devoted many papers of theirs. As Safran wrote, though problematic and source of confusion among different psychoanalytic approaches, the epistemological status of psychoanalysis, related to its condition of ‘liminality’, is a meaningful source of vitality for the discipline. The book explores the subject of enactment in relation to boundaries in psychoanalysis, referring to a series of viewpoints that lead to many crucial areas.
