Shared Realities: Participation Mystique and Beyond (Mark Winborn, Editor) is now available for purchase. Shared Realities brings together Jungian analysts and psychoanalysts from across the United States, the United Kingdom, and France. Jung's concept of participation mystique is used as a starting point for an in depth exploration of 'shared realities' in the analytic setting and beyond. The clinical, narrative, and theoretical discussions move through such related areas as: projective identification, negative coniunctio, reverie, intersubjectivity, the interactive field, phenomenology, neuroscience, the transferential chimera, shamanism, shared reality of place, borderland consciousness, and mystical participation. This unique collection of essays bridges theoretical orientations and includes some of the most original analytic writers of our time. An essential read for psychoanalysts, Jungian analysts, psychotherapists, and analytic candidates. Published by Fisher King Press.      

Contributors Include: Pamela Power, Marcus West, Robert Waska, Dianne Braden, Michael Eigen, Deborah Bryon, Jerome Bernstein, François Martin-Vallas, John White, and Mark Winborn

 

Praise for Shared Realities

 

“The breadth of these essays is truly extraordinary.  Reading them has enriched both my personal and professional life.  I highly recommend this book.”                                 

Donald Kalsched, Ph.D.

 

“This book is a true delight for anyone intrigued by those “moments of meeting”, moments of awe, when the ineffable becomes manifest, when we feel the shiver down our spine, be it in our work or in a moment of grace as we sit quietly in nature. Shared Realities offers nourishment for the clinician, for the intellect and, most importantly, for the soul.  I highly recommend it!” 

Tom Kelly, President IAAP
