Rezensionen

"Have you ever considered the way experience that goes unregistered or unsymbolized - the unformulated, the somatic, the unthought known, the "something more" - might be both shaped by, and contribute to shaping, clinical process? Have you thought about psychoanalysis as the creation, via this kind of work, of "communion" with the other, and eventually a sense of community? These are the crucial themes explored by Steven Knoblauch in this book. Today, with increasing awareness that psychoanalysis must attend as much to our embeddedness in cultures as it does to traditional individual development, this message is as timely as it is fascinating."

"Since the publication of his first book, Steven Knoblauch has expanded our ideas about the musicalities of psychoanalytic engagement. In Bodies and Social Rhythms, he establishes himself as not only a creative theorist, but as a thorough historian of psychoanalytic thought. He writes personally, guiding us through his own development as a clinician and theorist whose feet are firmly planted in ideals of both psychoanalytic and community-based action and communion. This book offers a wonderfully rich history of psychoanalytic notions of attachment and symbolization, but they are held in a constant tension with the social. He ends by turning to Fanon in a chapter that is a 'must read' for anyone attempting to come to grips with the ways the social and the unconscious co-mingle to support or disrupt communion and recognition."

"The focus of this book is the amazing expansion in the psychoanalytic horizon when attending to micro moments of the embodied emotional flux and rhythms that manifest the unconscious non-symbolic experience. Clinical dense descriptions of these micro-moments demonstrate how embodied gestures are also determined by the cultural and social context that extends beyond analyst and patient. Preserving its value, the author questions the restrictions of the structural cognitive frame that has predominated in psychoanalysis. Frame that has defended from the vulnerability inherent in surrendering to the porousness of shared bodies. A must read to acknowledge the curative power that lies dormant beyond interpretation."
