Résumé :
|
The article discusses essential points from a five-page "Statement on Training" which can so far be regarded as Klein’s only testimony to her relevant reflections. In it Klein explains the challenges for training analysis when further elements of training (seminars, one’s own treatments) are added. She outlines what has to be worked out in a training analysis if it is to serve as a solid foundation for later professional activity. This statement, written two months after the official end of the Freud/Klein controversies in London, is on the one hand located in the history of analytic training, and on the other appreciated as a document on the history of analytic technique. Whereas the use of counter-transference is generally considered to begin with Heimann’s (and Racker’s) work at the end of the 1940s, the statement - together with Klein’s lectures from 1936 – shows that this has to be corrected. – A German version of the "Statement" is printed as an appendix.
