Bringing together clinical writings from psychoanalysis and cultural objects from the applied fields of film, art, literature and music, the book also makes an argument for the usefulness of encounters with cultural objects as \"non-clinical case studies\" in the training and further professional development of psychoanalysts and psychotherapists. Through its engagement with psychosocial studies, this text, furthermore, interrogates, challenges and offers a way through a hierarchical split that has become established in psychoanalysis between \"clinical psychoanalysis\" and \"applied psychoanalysis\".\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCombining approaches used in clinical, academic and arts settings, \u003ci\u003eThe Culture-Breast in Psychoanalysis \u003c\/i\u003eis an essential resource for clinical practitioners of psychoanalysis, psychotherapy, counselling, psychology and psychiatry.
