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.

Abstract:"Trouser Parts," in opera, refer to ostensibly male characters sung by a female singer. Often such choices are more than a mere convention: they cast light on difficulties of gender identification in adolescence. Drawing on Jessica Benjamin's theoretical work, the essay examines operas by Mozart, Strauss, and Offenbach.

Abstract:I am interested in meaning and how to determine and interpret it in both cultural anthropology and clinical psychoanalysis. In this essay I explore differences and similarities between the project of ascertaining meaning in the two different practices, using the semiotic scheme provided by Charles Morris.

Abstract:The life and career of Bernard Paris, the foremost scholar of Third Force Psychology and its applications to literary study, are reviewed. Paris is praised for the openness with which he writes about his personal struggles and for the depth of his insights into literature. In his autobiographical writings, Paris shows how his reading of Karen Horney, in conjunction with his experience of psychotherapy, allowed him to replace his allegiance to George Eliot's self-effacing Religion of Humanity with a sounder value system. The utility of Paris's focus on the tension between rhetoric and mimesis in literary works, as well as his use of the concepts of the implied author and the authorial personality, is underscored. The legitimacy of analyzing the childhoods of literary characters and of considering the author as a historical person is defended as an enhancement of Paris's synchronic approach.
