The Cleveland Psychoanalytic Center Library has added a new online and print subscription to Contemporary Psychoanalysis, the quarterly journal of the William Alanson White Institute. The following is a description of the journal from the publisher.
Contemporary Psychoanalysis, a double blind peer-reviewed international quarterly, is the journal of the William Alanson White Institute and the William Alanson White Psychoanalytic Society. We publish creative and original psychoanalytic writing from both new and experienced authors. Although we very much encourage diverse perspectives, our primary focus is on interpersonal and relational psychoanalysis. Our pages include a mix of the scholarly and the clinical, the heady and the playful. We are committed to providing authors with thoughtful reviews and working one-on-one with them to craft articles that contribute substantively to the literature.
Our subscription begins with Volume 50, nos. 1-2. To commemorate the 50th year of the Journal, the editors have asked their best writers to select a lesser-known article from the journal that has nonetheless proved important to that writer’s practice. For the first issue, the selected article is “Sexual Contact Between Patient and Therapist,” by Charles Clay Dahlberg, M.D. (1970) This article was chosen by Mark J. Blechner, Ph.D. who introduces Dr. Dahlberg and follows up with his contribution to the subject, "Dissociation Among Psychoanalysts About Sexual Boundary Violations."To access the online version of this journal, click on the journal's icon on the Library PC desktop.
