"Wilfred Bion and Literary Criticism introduces the work of the British psychoanalyst,
Wilfred Bion (1897-1979), and the immense potential of his ideas for thinking about
literature, creative process, and creative writing. There is now renewed interest
in Bion's work following the publication of his Complete Works, but the complexities
of his theory and his distinctive style can be forbidding. Less well-known than Freud
or Lacan, the work of Wilfred Bion nevertheless offers new insights for psychoanalytic
literary criticism and creative writing. For newer readers of his work, this book
offers an engaging introduction to several of Bion's key ideas, including his theory
of thinking (the 'thought without a thinker'), the container/contained relationship,
alpha-function; alpha-elements, beta-elements and bizarre objects; K and -K; the Grid,
O, and the caesura. It also offers a way in to Bion's astonishing and challenging
experimental work, A Memoir of the Future, and explores the impact of his devastating
personal experiences as an officer during the First World War. Each chapter of Wilfred
Bion and Literary Criticism draws on one or more specific aspects of Bion's theory
in relation to creative texts by Sigmund Freud, Stevie Smith, B.S. Johnson, Mary Butts,
Jean Rhys, Nicholas Royle, J.G. Ballard, and Wilfred Bion himself. The first full-length
study to explore the potential of Bion's ideas for literary criticism, Wilfred Bion
and Literary Criticism introduces his complex and extensive work for a new audience
in an accessible and engaging way, and will be of great interest to scholars of creative
writing, literary criticism and psychoanalysis"
