tlooto Summary
This work on the use of an object arises out of my clinical experience and is in the direct line of development that is peculiarly mine, and has been followed by others, but there has been a sequence, and the order that there may be in the sequence belongs to the evolution of my work.
Abstract
ABSTRACT I reflect on the act of responding and its relation to the nature of encounter, the premise that underpins the interdisciplinary project that resulted in the publication of the book, Clinical Encounters in Sexuality: Psychoanalytic Practice and Queer Theory (2017a), edited by Eve Watson and myself. I consider, more specifically, the potential use of the book as an object within the context of psychoanalytic discussions around object usage.
