About this title

Synopsis

Prelogical Experience: An Inquiry Into Dreams And Other Creative Processes is a book written by Edward S. Tauber that delves into the world of dreams and other forms of creative processing. The book explores the idea that prelogical experiences, or experiences that occur before rational thought, play a significant role in shaping our understanding of the world around us. Tauber draws on his extensive background in psychology and psychoanalysis to examine the ways in which dreams, fantasies, and other forms of creative expression can help us better understand our own subconscious desires and fears. The book is a fascinating exploration of the human mind and the ways in which we process information and emotions, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the field of psychology or the creative arts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Review

"We might say that Prelogical Experience amounts to an interpersonalized ego psychology, a psychoanalytic way of thinking about mind that takes into account the influence of interpersonal relations on the structure of mind, and on what experience can be from one moment to the next. In this, Tauber and Green were continuing not only the emphasis of Fromm, but also that of Sullivan, whose concepts of selective inattention, dissociation, and the self-system were groundbreaking entries in the same set of observations."
