The author uses the lens of myth and fairy tales to examine the narratives generated by the analytic experience. Fairy tales are understood as representing fundamental developmental conflicts, accounting for their enduring power over time. The analytic encounter is seen as an analogue of the fairy tale in which the hidden self, damaged by loss and abandonment, reemerges only through the redemptive power of [an] other's love. Clinical material is presented in which hidden parts of the patient's self are projected into the analyst for safekeeping; these hidden parts resonate with the analyst's own lost, unrealized potential and form an intersubjective experience which the author believes is transformative. The patient's dormant powers emerge in a newly experienced atmosphere of recognition, and in this way, the analytic encounter resembles the fairy tale in providing an identificatory bond and a protective space for the patient's hidden vitality.
作者运用神话和童话故事的视角来审视由分析体验所产生的叙事。童话故事被理解为代表着基本的发展冲突，这解释了它们随着时间推移而具有的持久影响力。分析性相遇被视为童话故事的一种类似物，在其中，因失去和被抛弃而受损的隐藏自我，只有通过他人之爱的救赎力量才能再度浮现。文中呈现了临床素材，其中患者自我的隐藏部分被投射到分析师那里以获得妥善保管；这些隐藏部分与分析师自身失落的、未实现的潜能产生共鸣，并形成一种作者认为具有变革性的主体间体验。患者潜伏的力量在一种新体验到的认可氛围中显现出来，通过这种方式，分析性相遇类似于童话故事，为患者隐藏的生命力提供了一种认同纽带和一个保护空间。
