Description

In Dramatic Dialogue, Atlas and Aron develop the metaphors of drama and theatre to introduce a new frame of mind about therapeutic action and therapeutic traction. This model invites the patient’s many self-states and the a large number of versions of the therapist’s self onto the analytic stage to dream a mutual dream and live together the past and the future, as they appear in the present moment. The book brings together the relational emphasis on more than one self-states and enactment with the Bionian conceptions of reverie and dreaming-up the patient.

The term Dramatic Dialogue originated in Ferenczi’s clinical innovations and refers back to the patient and therapist dramatizing and dreaming-up the full range of their more than one selves. In conjunction with Atlas and Aron, readers will develop into immersed in a Dramatic Dialogue, which the authors elaborate and enact, the usage of the up to date language of more than one self-states, waking dreaming, dissociation, generative enactment, and the prospective function.

The book provides a wealthy description of up to date clinical practice, illustrated with a large number of clinical tales and detailed examination of clinical moments. Inspired by Bion’s concept of “becoming-at-one” and “at-one-ment,” the authors call for a return of the soul or spirit to psychoanalysis and the generative use of the analyst’s subjectivity, including a passionate use of mind, body and soul in the pursuit of psychoanalytic truth. Dramatic Dialogue can be of great interest to all psychoanalysts and psychotherapists.
