Waska formulates a distinctive and subtle argument concentrated on the topic of primitive loss. It is Waska's conviction that the experience of loss has a primacy within the paranoid-schizoid position but that this has received insufficient and inadequate recognition, with significant implications for analytic technique.With this standpoint as his orienting focus, Waska provides a finely-textured and penetrating discussion of such issues as projective identification, symbolization, transference and counter transference. A thoughtful and perceptive examination of theoretical issues is buttressed with substantial illustrative case material throughout.Calling for further work to be done in refining and clarifying the understanding of loss, and its intrapsychic, interpersonal and technical ramifications, the present volume represents a significant contribution and stimulus to that task"--Provided by publisher.Personality assessmentPersonality disordersPsychoanalytic interpretationPsychological TheorySchizophreniaSchizophrenia and Disorders with Psychotic FeaturesMental DisordersSchizophrenia, ParanoidPsychoanalytic TheoryPersonality assessment.Personality disorders.Psychoanalytic interpretation.Psychological TheorySchizophreniaSchizophrenia and Disorders with Psychotic FeaturesMental DisordersSchizophrenia, ParanoidPsychoanalytic Theory616.858616.8917Waska Robert847196FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910816890803321Primitive experiences of loss4063987UNINA
