Abstract
Abstract:Object relations theory reaches back to Sigmund Freud's 1905 essay "The Finding of an Object" and fully exfoliates in the groundbreaking child analysis of Melanie Klein, the developmental psychology of D. W. Winnicott, Hanna Segal's psychoanalytic aesthetics, and recent advances in queer theory, postcolonial studies, and Lacanian psychoanalysis. Increasingly, theorists and clinicians have brought the differing and, at times, contentious methodologies of Klein, Winnicott, and Jacques Lacan into productive psychoanalytic dialogue. "Refinding the Object in Modern Fiction Studies" advances this emerging critical conversation by providing fresh avenues for discerning the object's mediation of desire at the intersection of race, gender, and sexuality in the creative fiction of such canonical modernists as Nella Larsen, Ernest Hemingway, Toni Morrison, and Patrick McGrath.

Founded in 1939 by Sigmund Freud and Hanns Sachs, AMERICAN IMAGO is the preeminent scholarly journal of psychoanalysis. Appearing quarterly, AMERICAN IMAGO publishes innovative articles on the history and theory of psychoanalysis as well as on the reciprocal relations between psychoanalysis and the broad range of disciplines that constitute the human sciences. Since 2001, the journal has been edited by Peter L. Rudnytsky, who has made each issue a "special issue" and introduced a topical book review section, with a guest editor for every Fall issue.
