SUMMARY:Different Meanings of Fantasy and Phantasy
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Nasir Ilahi\, LLM\, LP\nThe term “fantasy” is foundational to psychoanalysis\, yet its clinical application varies dramatically across the Atlantic. While all schools share a common Freudian root\, the British Kleinian tradition added something additional. It developed the concept of “unconscious phantasy” as a continuous\, somatic\, and structural undercurrent of the psyche. This talk will explore these divergent definitions\, tracing their development from Freud’s central usage to his subsidiary notions of fantasy in his concepts of hallucinatory wish-fulfillment and negation.

SUMMARY:58th Anniversary Freud Lecture: The Innate Capacity for Representing Subjective Experience: The Infant’s Mind is Neither Primitive nor Pre-representational
DESCRIPTION:Anne Erreich\, PhD\, cites the prominence of theories which locate serious adult psychopathology in the pre-verbal infant’s inability to formulate or represent traumatic experience in her paper presentation. The work of two such authors\, H. Levine and D.B. Stern\, is briefly considered. The frame of reference for this investigation is that clinical and academic research findings are highly relevant to psychoanalytic theorizing. It is argued that when such findings are considered\, a view of the infant with “primordial and unrepresented” states of mind has little evidence to support it. In fact\, research findings summarized herein point to an opposite view: that of the “competent infant\,” one with highly accurate perceptual discrimination capacities and an innate ability to register and represent subjective experience in both procedural and declarative memory\, even pre-natally. Given the infant’s competencies it seems implausible to hold that representational deficits are at the heart of serious adult psychopathology\, which is instead seen to be the result of defensive maneuvers against unknowable and unspeakable truth rather than the absence of a pre-verbal representational capacity. Current research findings seem to pose a significant challenge for psychoanalytic theories which espouse so-called “primitive mental states\,” “unrepresented\,” ”unformulated\,” “unsymbolized” experience or “non-conscious” states.

SUMMARY:Noticing Understanding Responding: Winnicott at Work
DESCRIPTION:Written and presented by Lesley Caldwell\, MA\, PhD\, FIPA \nThis paper aims to extend the understanding of Donald Winnicott’s theoretical and clinical assumptions through his concern with play and playing\, and its links with the development of psychic flexibility. It approaches his work through his extensive clinical experience with babies and children\, and with neurotic and more disturbed adults. It highlights the need for the analyst to meet the patient on their own terms and be prepared to wait for them to arrive at a quality of psychic life through the continuing presence of the analyst. Dr. Caldwell thinks that playing originates in and depends on the patient’s capacity to be\, and to live from that being\, most especially with oneself and only then with others\, though Winnicott himself argues that these different ways of being initially emerge together. Dr. Caldwell illustrates this through his brief work with a child and his analysis with an adult woman.

SUMMARY:Revisiting Winnicott's Primary Maternal Preoccupation: The Transition to Parenthood
DESCRIPTION:Winnicott’s concept of primary maternal preoccupation highlighted an altered mental state presumed essential to a mother’s transition to parenthood. This presentation will review how Winnicott’s is relevant to more contemporary understanding of the psychological transition of adults to parenthood\, what are the challenges to adults becoming parents\, and how do individual differences in adults’ development as parents relate to their infants’ development. \nCE credits.
