Seminar on Separation with Film Illustration In clinical psychoanalysis and in psychotherapy the clinician who works with adults, encounters enactments in the psychoanalytic setting without knowing what actual historical experiences have formed the sedimentations of history. As a result of not knowing how the events of history have translated into a sense of history, the representational world of the patient can present challenges in how to understand the reactivations of history into the present. Without knowing how the saturated developmental events have informed the - continuum, the clinician is often at a loss on how to understand and interpret the transference wishes and transference demands. With the help of two theoretical papers by Margaret Mahler and John McDevitt we will study the course of development and study how developmental issues translate into technical issues in treatment.
