The Fabric of Affect in the Psychoanalytic Discourse (New Library of Psychoanalysis, 38)

Published for the first time in English, The Fabric of Affect in the Psychoanalytic Discourse is André Green's seminal work on affect, one of the most neglected topics in psychoanalysis. Originally published in French as Le Discours Vivant and considered a classic in the psychoanalytic world, the book lucidly connects theory, culture and clinical practice as it considers affect within psychoanalytic literature, structure and process in clinical practice, and theories on affect, negative hallucination, and language and discourse.
