Synopsis

Prelogical Experience: An Inquiry Into Dreams And Other Creative Processes is a book written by Edward S. Tauber. This book is an exploration of the prelogical experience, which refers to the way in which people experience the world before they develop logical thinking. The author argues that this prelogical experience is the source of creativity and that it is essential to understanding dreams and other creative processes.The book is divided into three sections. The first section provides an overview of the prelogical experience and its importance in creative processes. The second section focuses on dreams and how they can be used to access the prelogical experience. The author provides a detailed analysis of several dreams and shows how they can be interpreted to reveal the underlying prelogical experience.The third section of the book explores other creative processes, such as art, music, and literature. The author argues that these creative processes are also rooted in the prelogical experience and that understanding this experience is essential to fully appreciating these works of art.Overall, Prelogical Experience: An Inquiry Into Dreams And Other Creative Processes is a thought-provoking exploration of the prelogical experience and its role in creativity. The book is well-written and provides a fascinating insight into the human mind and its creative potential.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

One of the foundational texts of interpersonal psychoanalysis, Prelogical Experience (1959) is a pioneering attempt to elaborate an interpersonal theory of personality that encompasses the nonpropositional, nonverbal dimension of human experience.  Prelogical processes, the authors hold, cannot be consigned to infancy; rather they shape experience throughout life and are especially salient in relation to dreams, emotion, perception, and the arts.

Of special note is Tauber and Green's elaboration of the clinical situation that grows out of an appreciation of prelogical experience.  In a striking anticipation of contemporary thinking, they approach patient-therapist interaction in terms of the continuous exchange of "presentational data" by patient and analyst.  These data enable patient and therapist alike to "know" more about the other than can ever be expressed in propositional terms.

This perspective assigns an important role to what Piaget would term "the cognitive unconscious" in the clinical process.  It likewise sustains a view of the countertransference - which includes the analyst's own dreams - as a vital source of presentational data about the patient.  As Donnel Stern notes in his Introduction, these and other insights "amount to a surprisingly contemporary description of psychoanalytic treatment."
