Random Asset Memory
“By using, as the equivalent of free association,
children’s spontaneous play with suitable toys
provided and kept in the treatment-room,
Melanie Klein found a way to psychoanalyze
quitedisturbed children even as young as 3 or 4,
interpreting their play particularly in terms of
their implicit fantasies about their parents’
bodies and their own. In her early papers sexual
fantasies have first place but, having inherited
from her second analyst, Karl Abraham, a deep
interest in depression and its connections with
the first pre-genital (the ‘oral’) stages of sexual
development, she soon put the relationship of
feeding mother and infant at the centre of the
picture; later relationships came to be
interpreted in terms of that one, by her and by
her followers, who form a distinct group of the
‘object-relations’ school (Klein, 1975).”
