Long abstract | Seamus Heaney’s eloquent apologia on behalf of poetry cap-tures more accurately than most psychoanalytic texts my own way of thinking about the practice of psychoanalysis. Thinking through poetry may be my antidote to some tendencies in psy-choanalytic theory, language and practice towards institutional-ized rigidity, with its focus on the adaptive and the normative, as opposed to the radical sense of the singularity and uniqueness of the individual, which is the gift of psychoanalysis at its best. Postmodern, social constructionist critiques of gender, sexu-ality, and identity have challenged essentialist psychoanalytic notions of psychosexual development, fixed gender identity, and stable sexual orientation. Such critiques challenge psycho-analysts to recognize and interrogate assumptions that we hold about sexuality, identity, gender, and subjectivity, and to address the contradictions that have permeated psychoanalytic thinking on these questions, all the way back to Freud’s radical, con-flicted, disorderly, multiply revised, and exuberantly footnoted “Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality” . |
