About the Book
How has Herbert Rosenfeld contributed to psychoanalysis today?
Rosenfeld in Retrospect presents original psychoanalytic papers showing the influence of Herbert Rosenfeld on psychoanalysis today, and reproduces some of Rosenfeld's most important clinical writings.
In the first part of this book, The Conference Papers: Contemporary Developments of Rosenfeld's Work, the editor brings together papers and discussions by Rosenfeld's well-known contemporaries, Ronald Britton, Michael Feldman, Edna O'Shaughnessy, Hanna Segal and Riccardo Steiner who explore his contribution to psychoanalysis. John Steiner demonstrates the importance of Rosenfeld's classic papers, and critically surveys the more controversial developments in his later work. Part two contains four papers by Rosenfeld, chosen by his colleagues to be his most significant and original contributions.
This collection conveys Rosenfeld's liveliness and influence, and will be of interest to all of those attracted to his work.
