Beschreibung
Donald Meltzer's theory of aesthetic conflict. explores the profound clinical and metapsychological significance of boundless passion, awe-inspiring beauty, and the human drive to assail these emotions, revealing how the impact of "mother's beauty" propels us into the whirlwind of mental life, shaping our minds and experiences. The book delves into Meltzer's groundbreaking insights, examining how the primary aesthetic experience of beauty awakens the mind while also creating a paradoxical struggle. It explores the tension between being dazzled by beauty and recoiling from its unsettling power, which Meltzer argues underpins much of human pathology. Through this lens, the text illuminates the intricate interplay of emotions and drives that create mental life. This book is essential for psychoanalysts, psychologists, philosophers of the mind and aesthetics, and anyone intrigued by the mysteries of the human mind. It offers profound insights into the origins of mental life and the conflicts that shape our inner worlds, making it a vital resource for those seeking to deepen their understanding of Meltzer's revolutionary contributions to psychoanalysis.
