Abstract

Negative Therapeutic Reaction: Another Kleinian Perspective

A Melanie Klein’s unpublished Note in the Melanie Klein Archives, treating on the question of “negative therapeutic reaction", shows that Klein approached the theme, at a certain moment, in a form different from that which she advanced in published works. Thus, while in her books, Klein treats the “negative therapeutic reaction", by relating this notion chiefly to envy and the defences raised against the envy feeling, Klein’s perspective in this Note is closer to the concept of “contact-barrier", initially described by Sigmund Freud and later developed by W. R. Bion, and also to the notion of “character armour" described by Wilhelm Reich.
