As Ferenczi noted some 70 years ago, the psychoanalytic relationship may >significantly promote the development of subtler manifestations of receptivity.< Special qualities of unconscious receptivity and deep points of contact in the psychoanalytic relationship are explored, with reference to the history of psychoanalytic ideas (e.g., Freud, Ferenczi, Singer, Loewald, Symington) and to findings from other fields such as contemporary quantum science. Clinical vignettes are provided to illustrate such phenomena.}, language = {en} } @misc{Bass, author = {Bass, Anthony}, title = {Review Essay: Beyond the Fear of Intimacy}, series = {Psychoanalytic Dialogues Vol. 11 (2001), pp. 717-725.}, journal = {Psychoanalytic Dialogues Vol. 11 (2001), pp. 717-725.}, abstract = {This essay elaborates on some of the ideas set forth in >It Takes One to Know One< in response to Peter Shabad's and Paul Williams's commentaries on that paper.
