What have others read? A psychoanalytic bibliography
Introduction
In December 2016 I submitted a query to multiple professional organizations, social media, and personal and professional contacts. I asked clinicians for their choices of the Top 3 psychoanalytic articles, papers, or books.
A total of 135 people contributed 269 references. 112 contributors are based in the U.S. 43% of them in Illinois, 22% in New York, and the rest across 16 other states. The majority of international contributors work in Europe and Latin America.
I hope this reading list is a useful resource for clinicians interested in psychoanalytic theory and practice, and becomes a learning guide and an opportunity for discovery and exploration.
Caveats and Considerations
For the most part this list is not curated, i.e., I have not judged whether a reference is “psychoanalytic enough”. They are listed as provided by the contributors, a group of diverse clinical experience.
I have done my best to match the readings provided with actual titles, journals, dates, and publishing companies, but discrepancies are bound to happen. Please check the citations’ accuracy before using.
The references in this list include one or more of the following elements:
For books (except Freud writings), links to the book’s page on WorldCat.org and on Amazon.com; in some cases, book reviews or sample chapters.
For journal articles and Freud writings, links to the corresponding page on Psychoanalysis Electronic Publishing (PEP) when available; in a few cases, links to the full article.
A number in brackets (e.g., “[2]”) indicates the number of people who mentioned that title. If no number is included, that means the reading was suggested only by one person.
The notation “PEP Top 50!,” next to some journal articles, means that the article is one of the Top 50 most viewed articles on PEP during 2016.
I am neither familiar with nor can vouch for all the authors or titles included in this list. They are presented in the spirit of curiosity and collaboration.
