The motif of time and space runs as a continual thread through this book, which examines the relationship between psychotherapy and the theatre, as underpinned by Winnicott's writings. Winnicottian ideas are supplemented with Jung's ideas on self, the writings of Lacan and the prose, drama and poetry of Yeats. This book is highly recommended for analysts, therapists and trainees, in particular Winnicottian therapists, and anyone with an interest in the role theatre plays in the wider world --- from the publisher |
