In \u003ci\u003eThe Psychoanalytic Vision\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003cb\u003eFrank Summers\u003c\/b\u003e argues that analytic therapy and its unique epistemology is a worldview that stands in clear opposition to the hegemonic cultural value system of objectification, quantification, and materialism. \u003ci\u003eThe Psychoanalytic Vision \u003c\/i\u003esituates psychoanalysis as a voice of the rebel, affirming the importance of the subjective in contrast to the culture of objectification. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFounded on phenomenological philosophy from which it derives its unique epistemology and ethical grounding, psychoanalytic therapy as a hermeneutic of the experiential world has no role for reified concepts. Consequently, fundamental analytic concepts such as \"the unconscious\" and \"the intrapsychic,\" are reconceptualized to eliminate reifying elements. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe essence of \u003ci\u003eThe Psychoanalytic Vision \u003c\/i\u003eis the freshness of its theoretical and clinical approach as a hermeneutic of the experiential world. Fundamental clinical phenomena, such as dreams, time, and the experience of the other, are reformulated, and these theoretical shifts are illustrated with a variety of vivid case descriptions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe last part of the book is devoted to the surreptitious role beliefs and values of contemporary culture play in many forms of psychopathology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor clinicians, \u003ci\u003eThe Psychoanalytic Vision\u003c\/i\u003e offers a fresh clinical theory based on the consistent application of the subjectification of human experience, and for scholars, a worldview that provides the framework for a potentially fruitful cross-fertilization of ideas with cognate disciplines.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45236216922263,"sku":"9780415519403","price":4071.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780415519403.webp?v=1769212295","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-psychoanalytic-vision-the-experiencing-subject-transcendence-and-the-therapeutic-process-9780415519403","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
