Edition: Forth Impression
Condition remarks:
Condition: Fair. Jacket: Worn/faded — some yellowing to covers and tanning to pages and chipping around spine. Page Condition: Yellowed with tanning. Markings: previous owner. Binding condition: Binding intact but showing age-related wear consistent with a vintage pamphlet-style publication.
Love, Hate and Reparation presents two landmark lectures by two of the twentieth century's most influential psychoanalytic thinkers, Melanie Klein and Joan Riviere. Klein's contribution illuminates the deep psychological roots of love and the instinct for reparation — the innate human drive to repair relationships damaged by hate and aggression. Riviere's complementary lecture unpacks the nature of hate and its complex interplay with love in everyday human experience. Together, the two texts form a concise yet profound introduction to object relations theory, arguing that love and hate are not opposites but deeply entwined forces that shape our inner and outer worlds. Accessible yet intellectually rigorous, this volume remains essential reading for students of psychoanalysis, psychology, and human nature alike.
