An unpublished letter of S.H. Foulkes to Wilfred D. Abse. A unique summary of Foulkes' late group analytic thinking.

In this unpublished 18 page letter to his friend Wilfred D. Abse, the late Foulkes offers new autobiographical information about his intense relationship to theatre in his early years. He makes a final attempt to clarify the contribution of Trigant Burrow to the history of group analysis in comparison to his own. In the letter he indicates a kind of estrangement from the London group analytic scenery. He conceives this letter as a summary of his late group analytic conceptualizations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
