Rosemary Rizq, a practicing psychologist and psychoanalytic psychotherapist, explores how literary fiction can bring new perspectives to psychoanalysis by investigating the possibilities for 'fruitful encounter and dynamic exchange between psychoanalysis and literature.' This book offers an original and revealing perspective on the overlapping knowledge-claims and concerns of both literary fiction and psychoanalysis, written for practicing clinicians, academics, and students, as well as the wider public.

Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


Rosemary Rizq, a practicing psychologist and psychoanalytic psychotherapist, delves into the intriguing relationship between literary fiction and psychoanalysis in her thought-provoking collection of essays. Rather than offering psychoanalytic insights into literature, Rizq explores what literary fiction can bring to psychoanalysis. Through the examination of stories penned by authors such as Henry James, Kazuo Ishiguro, and Colm Tóibín, Rizq seeks to offer a fresh perspective on theoretical ideas often presented in abstract and overly technical ways within the psychoanalytic literature. In a remarkably innovative approach, this book explores how fiction can inform, illuminate, and even transform our understanding of psychoanalysis. Designed for practicing clinicians, academics, students, and the general public, this book offers an original and revealing perspective on the overlapping knowledge claims and concerns of both literary fiction and psychoanalysis.
