Contributions to Psycho-Analysis 1921–1945
The first collected volume of Melanie Klein's papers, published in London in 1948 by the Hogarth Press and the Institute of Psycho-Analysis as no. 34 of the International Psycho-Analytical Library, with an introduction by Ernest Jones. It opens with her first paper, "The Development of a Child", and continues through her papers on child analysis, the early stages of the Oedipus conflict, symbol formation and manic-depressive states. It closes with "The Oedipus Complex in the Light of Early Anxieties" (1945). Read in sequence, the papers show how her thinking moved from the play technique to the depressive position.
