Abstract The author illustrates how 35+ years of interaction with Philip Bromberg affected her clinical and theorical work. Some of the phenomena described include a woman’s experience of herself across the menstrual cycle, the vicissitudes of how sexual encounters are experienced and remembered, and “spectatoring”, i.e., watching oneself have sex as if it’s happening to another person. These phenomena are observed through the lens of dissociated self-states. This exploration ends with a verbatim account of an informal supervision with Bromberg and its impact on patient and analyst.

Abstract The author reviews some of her personal and intellectual connections and experience in dialogue with Philip Bromberg, touching on a few ideas that have central importance for her as well as how he conveyed his own experience and feeling of what was important. She highlights how Bromberg influenced her and summarizes the way she understands her differences with him.

Emily A. Kuriloff
Abstract This article begins with a review of Philip Bromberg’s penultimate psychoanalytic essay, “Sullivan as Pragmatic Visionary, Operationist and OperRelationalist” (2014), in which he honors the founder of the interpersonal psychoanalytic tradition. His focus on Sullivan’s emotional experience—specifically his struggle to be fully himself—reveals both motives and impediments to his interpersonal theory and praxis. The discussion then turns to Philip himself, who—inspired by Sullivan—also privileges the quality of relatedness in the moment, but with a significant difference. Rather than distortions or gaps in reality that impede insight, Philip favors affect, honoring Sullivan’s core notion that the quality of relatedness is central to personal change. Philip’s life both in and out of the consulting room is a testament to this sensibility and is ultimately illustrated in the author’s own experiences with Bromberg as Supervisor, Mentor, and, finally, as Dear Friend.
本文首先回顾了Philip Bromberg的倒数第二篇精神分析论文《Sullivan as Pragmatic Visionary, Operationist and OperRelationalist》(2014)，在这篇文章中，他向人际精神分析传统的创始人致敬。他对沙利文情感经历的关注——特别是他为完全做自己所做的努力——揭示了他人际关系理论和实践的动机和障碍。然后，讨论转向菲利普本人，他受沙利文的启发，也享受着当下的亲缘关系，但却有着显著的不同。比起现实中阻碍洞察力的扭曲或差距，菲利普更喜欢影响，尊重沙利文的核心理念，即关系的质量是个人改变的核心。菲利普在咨询室内外的生活证明了这种敏感性，并最终在作者与布朗伯格作为导师，导师，最后作为亲爱的朋友的亲身经历中得到了说明。

Abstract This essay is dedicated to Philip M. Bromberg whose influence the author found to be transformative, both professionally and personally. The memories capture the relational intimacy experienced with Philip Bromberg during particularly vulnerable moments. Each memory is also used to illustrate the clinical presence needed to hold the disparate self-states inherent to dissociation. A brief case discussion applies the me/not me paradigm to the dynamics of “othering the analyst,” based on socioeconomic differences. The essay concludes with the recognition that undoing elements of dissociation expand our subjectivity in ways that stimulate our creativity.

Abstract The clinical case I will present is intentionally without substantial theoretical references as it is meant to be a tribute entirely focused not only on Philip Bromberg’s thought, but also on his writing style and on the many emotions and much wisdom that are expressed in his texts, sometimes explicitly, sometimes implicitly. Briefly, I would like to pay an entirely personal tribute to Bromberg the analyst/poet whom I have known—not for long, but very intensely—whom I have loved very much, whom I miss, and who continues to inspire me every day in my analytic work. In this article, I also refer to an active mode of “knowing” patients that I have developed over the past twenty years, which consists of miming them—not in their presence—in the attempt to get in touch with what their bodies and expressive movements leave on my body. I have learned a great deal from this form of implicit relational knowing (as Daniel Stern would have called it) and I am glad to share it with the readers of this article. Finally, I would like to sincerely thank Velleda Ceccoli and Jean Petrucelli for giving me such a valuable opportunity to remember Philip Bromberg.

R. Kluft
Abstract Concepts from emerging relational/intersubjective perspectives elaborate a definition, understanding, and clinical approach to dissociation consistent with their paradigms. They cast new light upon dissociation as a long underappreciated and often overlooked (primarily characterological) defense. While some embrace the extension of these ideas into work with the formal dissociative disorders, others think that that this development risked conveying both an incomplete picture of dissociation as a defense and contributing to a potential misunderstanding of these conditions and their treatment. This report summarizes conversation between the late Philip M. Bromberg and the author of this paper as they worked to clarify and reconcile their divergent perspectives on several relevant issues.

Abstract Individuals with eating disorders (ED) use their bodies to dissociate need and desire, thus maintaining their autonomy from other human beings. Desire is dissociated and concretized in the body, where it is ruthlessly controlled and attacked. In addition, the preoccupation with food and the process of eating (or not eating) substitute for a relationship with a needed, self-regulating other. For these reasons, it is difficult for ED patients to access desire in treatment. A dangerous enactment can arise, in which the patient’s dissociated desire can evoke the analyst’s dissociated neglect, which helps perpetuate the patient’s dissociation of desire, in an endless cycle. Strategies for accessing the patient’s desiring self-states are discussed, particularly the importance of acknowledging the healthy, self-defining functions of the patient’s ED behavior.

Abstract The contributions to this special volume are but one holographic sliver representing the ways in which Philip M. Bromberg influenced psychoanalysis. To give voice to the many that he touched would require a never-ending issue of Contemporary Psychoanalysis. So, for now, this special edition brings you a slice. Bromberg’s ideas are among the most influential bodies of work written by any interpersonal/relational analyst and his teachings, supervisions, and writings collectively speak to his belief in profound affective possibilities for human relatedness.
