Notes
A qualification: while my assertion is not a general truth about how preferred theories are disseminated and given legitimate “status,” slants and biases regarding the selection of papers for national and international presentations and publications are always operating, often on unrecognized levels of awareness.
The title of this paper is “Impervious and Intrusive: The Impenetrable Object in Transference and Countertransference,” by Wilhelm Skogstad.
The treating analyst is also the author of this paper.
