I then consider the ways in which other major psychoanalytic authors, W.R.D. Fairbairn and Hans Loewald, as well as the American psychiatrist Harry Stack Sullivan, struggled with the same problems Bowlby did. There is now a marked receptivity among psychoanalysts to the same ideas that earned Bowlby his place, along with Fairbairn and Sullivan, in the psychoanalytic Gulag. Finally, I consider the way in which an integration of these different angles on the same phenomena can be helpful both conceptually and clinically.}, language = {en} } @article{Mitchell, author = {Mitchell, Stephen A.}, title = {Psychoanalysis and the degradation of romance}, series = {Psychoanalytic Dialogues Vol. 09 (1999), pp. 717-719.}, journal = {Psychoanalytic Dialogues Vol. 09 (1999), pp. 717-719.}, language = {en} } @article{Mitchell, author = {Mitchell, Stephen A.}, title = {Reply to Commentaries}, series = {Psychoanalytic Dialogues Vol. 10 (2000), pp. 505-507.}, journal = {Psychoanalytic Dialogues Vol. 10 (2000), pp. 505-507.}, language = {en} } @article{Mitchell, author = {Mitchell, Stephen A.}, title = {Reply to commentary}, series = {Psychoanalytic Dialogues Vol. 10 (2000), pp. 713-733.}, journal = {Psychoanalytic Dialogues Vol. 10 (2000), pp. 713-733.}, abstract = {The experience of self is partially a narrative of one's history without memory, there is no self.

From this vantage point, two specific clinical advantages of Sander's approach are discussed. First, it focuses on interpersonal behavior, that is, on what people actually do with each other. Second, it explores a series of dialectics that are central to psychoanalytic process. These include those between complexity and unity, differences and continuity, and change and recurrence. Finally, a clinical vignette is presented, in which a shift in the tone of the supervisory interaction had a direct effect on the therapist - patient interaction and thus on the outcome of the therapy.}, language = {en} } @article{MitchellHarris, author = {Mitchell, Stephen A. and Harris, Adrienne}, title = {The patient's experience of the analyst's subjectivity}, series = {Psychoanalytic Dialogues, Vol. 14 (2004), pp. 165-191.}, journal = {Psychoanalytic Dialogues, Vol. 14 (2004), pp. 165-191.}, abstract = {In this essay, we pose the question of psychoanalysis and national character.
