the child, the family, and the outside world
D. W. Winnicott
Synopsis "the child, the family, and the outside world"
Dr. Winnicott explores the basic relationships of childhood starting with the bond of love between mother and infant, which he views as the key to personality. Speaking directly and informally, he explains everyday issues such as feeding, crying, playing, independence, and shyness as well as serious problems such as stealing and lying.Throughout each discussion, Dr. Winnicott emphasizes the inborn abilities of parents and carefully distinguishes these from the skill that must be learned. Fascinating chapters on the roots of aggression, on the fear of dependence and its unfortunate consequences in adulthood, and on the innate morality of the baby reveal Dr. Winnicott's characteristic wit and insight.
(1896-1971)Pediatra y psicoanalista inglés, uno de los grandes referentes de la corriente psicoanalítica posterior a Freud. Estudió medicina en la Universidad de Cambridge. Durante la Primera Guerra Mundial fue reclutado y sirvió como cirujano. Una vez concluido su servicio pudo terminar su carrera, especializándose en la rama de la pediatría. Mientras estudiaba pediatría, comenzó a mostrar interés por el psicoanálisis freudiano al conocer a Ernest Jones, psicoanalista y biógrafo de Sigmund Freud, el cual le animó a que comenzara su Análisis Didáctico con James Strachey, psicoanálisis que continuó más tarde con Joan Rivière. Posteriormente, Donald Winnicott ingresó como miembro en la Sociedad Psicoanálitica Británica de la que llegó a ser presidente al final de su vida.
