Description: A Beholder's Share by Dodi Goldman A Beholders Share demonstrates how a sense of reality is evoked in the unpredictable space between imagination and adaptation. The world calls forth something in each of us—a beholders share—which in turn calls forth something in the world. Though usually viewed as opposites, imagination and reality make uneasy but necessary bedfellows. Part I of A Beholders Share shows how fantasy generates novelty by creating versions of what is already known, while imagination allows what seems familiar to be seen afresh. Goldmans essays offer unexpected takes on common clinical encounters: clashes of belief, the search for generational dialogue, the awkward discomfort of feeling like a fake, the problem of how and when to end analysis, the strains of working with psychotic anxieties.Part II, Winnicotts Living Legacy, illuminates Winnicotts preoccupation with difficulties inherent in contact with reality. These chapters bring to life Winnicotts personal struggle with an area of experience his own two analyses failed to touch, the tangled relationship with Masud Khan, his recognition of dissociation as "a queer kind of truth," and how Romantic poets shaped Winnicotts view of what is felt as real. Bringing together Dodi Goldmans seminal and new writings, A Beholders Share will appeal to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists, as well as students and teachers of the arts, literature, and humanities.

The book is devoted both to Goldmans original and informative reading of Winnicott and to his own creative and passionate clinical work. The result is a volume sure to inspire psychotherapists of all persuasions and levels of experience, and to engage others interested in the study of lives in depth."-Jay Greenberg, Ph.D., Editor, The Psychoanalytic Quarterly and Recipient, 2015 Mary S. Sigourney Award."A Beholders Share" is an exciting event for anyone with a deep interest in human experience and Winnicott. It provides a rare opportunity to observe close-up how an internationally acclaimed scholar connects with Winnicott through shared sensibility, helping him find his way toward psychoanalytic work. Moving seamlessly between Winnicott and his own highly creative and imaginative work, Goldmans essays are complex, wide-ranging, generous, and deeply knowledgeable. All this—in a writing style that goes-on-communicating with the reader and touches the heart."-Michal Rieck, Training and supervising analyst, The Israel Psychoanalytic Society, Co-Founder and Co-Director Israel Winnicott Center, Tel Aviv, Israel."When we look at art, it summons something from within us; but we also summon something from within it: that is the beholders share, and Goldmans inspiration. Goldmans writing does not merely inform, it embroiders; and the pattern comes into being as we read, woven together with our experience of the reading. Goldman is that rare thing: a psychoanalytic writer who also happens to be a fine writer. In the first half of the book, this sensibility is revealed in various unexpected developments with his patients; the second half shows us why Goldman and Winnicott are kindred spirits. Goldmans book is subtle, expressive, and frequently surprising. If that description appeals to you, read it. You wont regret it."-Donnel B. Stern, Ph.D., William Alanson White Institute and NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis."Dodi Goldmans engaging and deeply useful book is Winnicottian in the best sense of that word: original, creative, enveloping the reader in the serious play of clinical psychoanalysis. Freedom and safety are always in sight, whether Goldman is chasing an idea or listening to a patient. At whatever level you join the conversation, prepare to be interestingly transformed."-Adrienne Harris, Faculty and supervisor, NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis; Co-editor, Relational Perspectives Book Series and author of Gender as Soft Assembly (Routledge, 2009).With the eye of a psychoanalyst, the conscience of an activist, and the voice of a poet Dodi Goldman explores the ways imagination and social reality interpenetrate, giving meaning and richness to human experience.

Movement through intellectual discourses can unerringly be detected in his authorial and analytic work, whose fluidity is evinced when subject and object are not located on two opposite banks, but, rather, appear to be immersed in a containing medium that promotes their subtly shifting positions within a reciprocally transforming relationship.Pina Antinucci, associate member of the British Psychoanalytic Society and of the Italian Psychoanalytic Society (IPA).
