Description

In contemporary psychoanalysis, establishing boundaries for mental states is a fundamental goal of clinical practice. Without these boundaries, patients may experience the 'formless infinite' of primitive mental states. Formless Infinity: Clinical Explorations of Matte Blanco and Bion provides a deep look into how analysts can work with patients to reveal, understand, and contain these states. This book, part of The New Library of Psychoanalysis, draws on the foundational work of Matte Blanco and Bion. Riccardo Lombardi explores the core concepts of the unconscious and the role of the body in analysis. By examining themes of time and death, this text offers a way to navigate the complexities of primitive mental processes. It is a valuable resource for practitioners looking to expand their understanding of how to manage and contain the mental states of their patients through clinical application.
