"Winnicott" and "sex" are two subjects that are rarely associated with
one another. Sexuality is not a prominent theme within the work of
Winnicott, who preferred to concentrate on the development of the self
from infancy. However, his writings contain unexplored insights into
sexuality and it is these hidden insights that prompted the author to
invite papers from leading analysts to expand upon them. This
collection provides a fresh and innovative look at the work of
Winnicott and into sexuality, in particular infantile sexuality. The
unusual link of Winnicott to Freud and to a psychoanalysis located in
the drives encourages a different perspective into British
psychoanalysis. Other diverse themes include a historical examination
of Winnicott through the British Society; an exploration of the
similarities between Laplanche and Winnicott; the use of Winnicott's
work in the treatment of sexual dysfunction; and the interrelation
between sexuality and play. This is the sixth volume in the Winnicott
Studies Monograph Series.
