Psychoanalysis is ambivalent about creativity and its own creative potential. On the one hand, psychoanalysis offers enormous resources for elucidating obstacles to creativity, that way of living, making and relating to self and others that is fresh, vital, unpredictable and open to feedback and evolution. On the other hand, when we analysts know too much beforehand about what a work of art really means or the fundamental and singular motives of creativity, then psychoanalysis unconsciously partakes of a perverse scenario in which the work of art serves as merely a means to the author's ends and is psychologically colonized. When psychoanalysis is The Discipline That Knows, then art has nothing new to teach psychoanalysts and our field is impoverished. "Psychoanalysis and Creative Living" attempts to elucidate how psychoanalysis could work through this tension between its creative and perverse possibilities and foster creative living.
精神分析对创造力及其自身的创造潜力持矛盾态度。一方面，精神分析为阐明创造力的障碍提供了巨大资源，这种生活、创造以及与自我和他人建立联系的方式是新颖、充满活力、不可预测且乐于接受反馈和演变的。另一方面，当我们分析师事先对一件艺术作品的真正含义或创造力的根本且独特动机了解得太多时，精神分析就会不自觉地陷入一种反常的情境，在这种情境中，艺术作品仅仅成为作者达到目的的手段，并在心理上被殖民化。当精神分析成为“无所不知的学科”时，艺术就没有什么新东西可以教给精神分析师，我们的领域也会变得贫瘠。《精神分析与创造性生活》试图阐明精神分析如何能够化解其在创造性与反常可能性之间的这种紧张关系，并促进创造性生活。
