The Complete Works of W.R. Bion: All Volumes (The Complete Works of W.R. Bion)

by W. R. Bion

The Complete Works of W. R. Bion is now available in a coherent and corrected format. Comprising sixteen volumes bound in green cloth, this edition has been brought together and edited by Chris Mawson with the assistance of Francesca Bion. Incorporating many corrections to previously published works, it also features previously unpublished papers. Including a general index and editorial introductions to all the works, these volumes will be a useful and valuable aid to psychoanalytic scholars and clinicians, and all those interested in studying and making use of Bion's thinking.Bion's writings, including the previously unpublished papers and additions to his Cogitations, collected together in the Complete Works, show that the clinical thrust of Bion's work has clear lines of continuity with that of Melanie Klein, just as her work has an essential continuity with the later work of Freud. In Bion's clinical work and supervision the goal remains insightful understanding of psychic reality through a disciplined experiencing of the transference and countertransference; the setting and the method - however much Bion's terminology might suggest otherwise - remains rigorously psychoanalytic.

The Complete Works of W.R. Bion: Volume 1 (The\complete Works Of W. R. Bion Ser.)

The Complete Works of W.R. Bion: Volume 11 (The Complete Works of W.R. Bion)

by W. R. Bion

Cogitations is the name Bion gave to the occasional short notes he had begun to write in the February of 1958 in order to clarify his think-ing about the difficulties of working with psychotic patients using an unmodified psychoanalytic method – work informed by and shared with his two closest colleagues (who, like Bion, were in analysis with Melanie Klein), Hanna Segal and Herbert Rosenfeld. That clinical work formed the foundation of the clinical papers reproduced in Second Thoughts and the formulations in the four books of the 1960s: Learning from Expe-rience, Elements of Psycho-Analysis, Transformations, and Attention and Interpretation.

The Complete Works of W.R. Bion: Volume 12 (The\complete Works Of W. R. Bion Ser.)

by W. R. Bion

A figurative and free-ranging psychoanalytic novel was not something Bion would have felt free to write and – more to the point – to publish had he and his wife, Francesca, not moved to Los Angeles, which they did in 1968. Once there, Bion set about adjusting to the new culture, establishing links with the analysts who had invited him, and setting up an analytic practice. He also began work on a book, which he called The Dream, published in 1975. Two years later he added The Past Pre-sented, and in 1979 – with the addition of The Dawn of Oblivion – the novel had become a trilogy. In 1991, at the instigation of Francesca Bion, the three were finally published in one volume, with corrections, together with an enlarged version of A Key to A Memoir of the Future, which had first been published in 1981. Francesca Bion has described the Memoir asa fictionalised, dramatised presentation of a lifetime’s experiences, filled with a crowd of character; voicing the many facets of his own personality and thought; at the same time we recognise ourselves among the dramatis personae.

The Complete Works of W.R. Bion: Volume 15 (The Complete Works of W.R. Bion)

by W. R. Bion

The previously unpublished works by Bion included in this volume com-prise four papers and ‘Further Cogitations’ from 1968 to 1969.The first of the papers has the title, ‘The Conception of Man‘. It was written originally as a chapter for a planned book of the same title, to be edited by Arthur Burton, who also edited Psychotherapy of the Psycho-ses (1961). Bion had been recommended as a possible contributor to the book by John Harvard-Watts – who had, around that time, suggested to Francesca Bion that she might persuade her husband to publish as a book the papers of Experiences in Groups and Other Papers (1961). Burton’s book was to have clarified how different thinkers conceived of Man, ”in his basic nature and humanity.

The Complete Works of W.R. Bion: Volume 7 (The Complete Works of W.R. Bion)

by W. R. Bion

These lectures have been edited to suit them to the printed, rather than the spoken word. With the exception of a few minor additions the text is substantially the same as that of the transcripts taken from the original tape recordings.The questions which stimulated the material content have had to be subjected to the same selection and compression without, I hope, too much misrepresentation of the intentions of the participants. To them I would like to express my thanks; also to Frank Philips, whose arduous and spontaneous translation made the lectures in São Paulo possible. Of my wife’s contribution in changing the spoken to the printed word I cannot speak highly enough. This book has cost her many hours of skilful work.
