This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Freudian claim that dreams are meaningful and that their meanings can be discovered through dream interpretation has in recent times come under harsh attack from both scientific and hermeneutic-psychoanalytic circles. In a forceful response to these critiques, Rachel Blass demonstrates that while Freud and his followers have thus far failed to provide adequate justification for his dream theory, such justification may now be found through an alternate and legitimate—yet neglected—route, one that establishes both scientifically and philosophically the relationship between the self of the dreamer and that of the awake individual. The implications of this argument are both practical and theoretical: by providing sorely absent scientific and philosophical grounding to the very foundations of dream interpretation, the book clarifies and broadens the possibilities of dream interpretation within the clinical setting, and breaks new ground in the field of psychoanalytic epistemology and the philosophy of the human sciences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Essay from the year 2009 in the subject Psychology - Consulting, Therapy, Harvard University, course: Psychoanalysis, language: English, abstract: Dreams are a fascinating topic and can be interpreted from multiple angles, which can result in a multitude of interpretations. Freud believed dreams were formed by an intrapsychic conflict created by the Id's unconscious wants pushing in to the conscious process, and the Ego defending against Id's assail. Dreams are believed by many to be a way of working through conflicts from waking life that may be too difficult to be rationalized by the conscious process. Another major element of dreams is to "trick" the Id into believing that its wants have been fulfilled, due to the fact that imagery within dreams through the "Manifest" or "Latent" content may present the want the Id desires, which may not be directly or easily attainable in waking life. Psychoanalysts view dreams and their interpretations as a significant part of therapy, for the reason that they may represent conflicts the mind is trying to make sense of, which may correlate with the tribulations currently being counseled by the analyst. Dream interpretations may present the object troubling the client to the analyst through their latent content, which may not have been noticed otherwise. These same interpretations may also aid the process of psychoanalysis and confirm the progression of analytic therapy, thus tell the psychotherapist s/he is on mark with their course of treatment. Dreams may also inform the analyst of certain personality or character traits due to a repeating pattern within dreams, or lack of certain patterns revealing more about the client, thus allowing the therapist to better shape the direction of analysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The libido theory is one of the major areas of interest in psychoanalysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weaving together state-of-the-art research, theory, and clinical insights, this book provides a new understanding of the unconscious and its centrality in human functioning. The authors review heuristics, implicit memory, implicit learning, attribution theory, implicit motivation, automaticity, affective versus cognitive salience, embodied cognition, and clinical theories of unconscious functioning. They integrate this work with cognitive neuroscience views of the mind to create an empirically supported model of the unconscious. Arguing that widely used psychotherapies--including both psychodynamic and cognitive approaches--have not kept pace with current science, the book identifies promising directions for clinical practice.

Download or read book The Significance of Dreams written by Peter Fonagy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at dreams from a twenty-first century perspective. It takes its inspiration from Freud's insights, but pursues psychoanalytic interest into both neuroscience and the modern psychoanalytic consulting room. The book looks at laboratory research on dreaming alongside the modern clinical use of dreams and links together clinical and empirical research, integrating classical ideas with the plurality of psychoanalytic theoretical constructs available to modern researchers. Psychoanalysts writing about dreams have traditionally represented the cutting edge of clinical and theoretical development, and this book is no exception. Many of the contributions, as well as the epistemological position taken by the writers, represent a kind of radical openness to new ways of thinking about the clinical situation and about theory. In line with the ambition of the editors, this volume represents an integration of theories and disciplines, and a scientific context for modern psychoanalysis. The link between clinical research and extraclinical research via the royal road of dreaming is a theme that runs through all the contributions.
