About the Book

Playing and Reality Revisited is the first volume of a new IPA series dedicated to the greatest writings of psychoanalysis. More than forty years after its publication, Donald W. Winnicott's Playing and Reality is still a source of inspiration for numerous psychoanalysts. Gennaro Saragnano and Christian Seulin have invited some of the most eminent specialists of Winnicott's thinking to write on the most significant themes that the author discovered and highlighted brillantly in his book. They show how such concepts as transitional object and phenomena, the use of an object, and mirroring, remain essential today, and explore the way in which Winnicott conceived playing, creativity, cultural experience and adolescence, demonstrating their contemporary relevance. This book is both an homage to Winnicott and a fascinating extension of his work.

Review :
'Since Winnicotts initial formulation of the hypothesis on transitional objects and transitional phenomena - written in a deceptively simple style - attempts to unravel their theoretical complexity have at times overlooked the depth of his clinical insights. On the other hand, the poetical elan of his writing has led some critics to the mistaken idea that the radical transformative impact of his work in psychoanalytical clinical thinking implied a rupture with the fundamentals of Freudian metapsychology. The different points of view gathered in this important book avoid the dual risk of these Scylla and Charybdis. They provide the theoretically inclined reader with valuable working hypotheses to inquire into the metapsychological density of Winnicott's ideas, and the seasoned clinician with a renewed experience of the poetic potentialities of the psychoanalytic encounter.'- Max Hernandez, Member and Training Analyst of the Peruvian Psychoanalytic Society, member of the British Psychoanalytical Society, and former Vice-President of the International Psychoanalytical Association
