Manifestations of the archaic in character within the analytic field: From memories in behaviour to chronic and acute enactments.

The objective of this paper is to discuss the ways in which primitive aspects of the mind, in particular, the archaic elements of character, become manifest within the analytic field. After a review of the concept, it is proposed that a "normal" character manifests through memories in behaviours/feelings, which seek the object to satisfy their needs. The characterological structure keeps primitive traumatic inscriptions under control.

Background: Current research on the transmission of trauma and eating disorders across generations is limited. However, quantitative studies suggest that the influence of parents' and grandparents' eating disorders and their prior exposure to trauma are associated with the development of eating disorders in future generations. Qualitative research exploring personal accounts of the impact of transgenerational trauma on the development of eating disorders has been largely unexplored.

While developments within psychoanalytic thought have expanded our understanding of the phenomenon of countertransference and its meaning, clinicians are often left with a sense that negative countertransference is a sign of a therapist's own "unfinished business." Within the context of clinical supervision, the model of putting countertransference reactions through The Therapist Translator is introduced as a means of exploring how to best give voice to and make use of the emotional responses that arise from within the intersubjective analytic field. In this article, the authors introduce a group process dynamic that utilizes the free association of multiple clinicians to assist in "translating" relatively unformulated material into conscious, linguistic information that can be incorporated into the treatment.

It is now more than 30 years since Peter Fonagy published his classic 1991 paper introducing the concept of "mentalization" into the psychoanalytic literature, and in the period since then mentalization-based treatment (MBT) has emerged as an important therapeutic approach. In reviewing the history of this treatment, it is often assumed that MBT emerged at the interface between three domains: first, the developmental research on theory of mind; second, the clinical challenges of treating borderline personality disorder; and third, the empirical research on intergenerational patterns of attachment. This article suggests that there was one more domain, which was equally important to the development of MBT and which is perhaps less widely recognized.
