What all these analysts must have in common however is an interest in thinking through the importance of theories of metaphor and theories of fields as applicable in the context of psychoanalysis. It would not be a stretch to say that the basic concepts of ‘metaphor and fields’ are periodically reinvented by psychoanalysts of various persuasions who are not acquainted with each other’s work since they do not read or review the literature that is produce outside the school to which they belong.   ER -
