by Jacob Levy Moreno

J.L. Moreno’s first book on group psychotherapy, is sadly also the last in the series of his newly re-published titles, a project undertaken by the North-West Psychodrama Association in 2010. With the support and encouragement of Zerka T.Moreno, over the past twelve years we have published just as many of Moreno’s seminal works. These span from his early writings about impromptu and spontaneous theatre, through his philosophical and sociometric ideas, his more clinically focused psychodrama psychotherapy concepts jointly formalized with Zerka, to some more biographical titles.

In the midst of and out of the pandemic situation in 2020, the psychodramatic world experienced an enormous expansion: all over the world, psychodramatists began to experiment with their method in the virtual space of the internet – with the help of video platforms that enable interpersonal interaction in real time despite lock downs, isolation and distance.
This initiated discussions about the limits and possibilities of psychodramatic online work, ranging from euphoric reactions to the expansion of the spectrum of possibilities to the question of what can still be called psychodrama at all.
In this anthology, practical experiences, methods, insights and tensions regarding online psychodrama are presented and discussed.

Peer groups have a great significance in children’s development. Since children express their problems through play and action, Alfons Aichinger and Walter Holl have developed the basic ideas and intervention possibilities of psychodrama for group therapy work with children in a process spanning over 35 years. Using vivid examples, they describe the appropriate composition of a group of children, the structure of a group therapy session, the group process, disorder-oriented and group process-oriented interventions and the demands placed on the leaders of these groups.

The cadenced, repetitive and periodic rhythm that marks the holding of individual analysis and the group sessions evokes an image of the cyclical nature of ritual experience. Rituals often serve to relate the sacred mythical world of the Gods, of the origins, to the world of everyday experience. Rituals recreate short time – the connection between earth and heaven and between the Gods and the people, in other words the feeling of the deep meaning of our own existence. The book explores this subject, grounding on the experience of many Group Psychotherapists and Analysts practicing in different nations, with different languages, cultural backgrounds and methods. You will find articles in English, in Italian and in Spanish.

The author examines the relationship between psychotherapy and the theatre, as underpinned by Winnicott’s writings, Jung’s ideas on self, the writings of Lacan and the prose, drama, and poetry of Yeats – an unusual blend between diverse and often opposing schools of thought. Part one focuses on the workings of language, space, and meaning-making in the settings of infancy, therapy, and theatre. Part two looks at the “struggle between masks,” which are used as a metaphor for self and the representation of self. Part Three looks at signs and times by showing that space and linear time are one and indivisible: disturbance in one means disturbance in the other. Published by Karnac Books.

Eberhard Scheiffele  
It starts with a philosophical analysis of the concepts of acting, improvisation and spontaneity and then consolidates the elements of Moreno’s theory of the nature and function of theatre, which are dispersed throughout his writings and have never been thoroughly collected in one place. This allows a critical comparison with two dramatic theorists who anticipated some of Moreno’s ideas: Aristotle from whom he adapted the concept of catharsis and Goethe whom he saw as a forerunner of both therapy through drama and spontaneous production. Analyzing the dramatic and artistic way Moreno wrote and acted, I conclude that he was at heart a theatre person.

Working with children who have been physically or sexually abused presents tremendous challenges. Various therapeutic techniques can be used, and one of them is through the medium of drama in the hands of psychodramatists and dramatherapists.

Jacob Levy Moreno
Written in 1920 and translated in 1941, “Das Testament des Vaters” is one of the basic books in Moreno’s theory and philosophy. To this day this is one of the most fascinating that Moreno wrote. Fascinating because of the philosophy that he preached, a philosophy of co-responsibility and co-creativity. Also fascinating because of the way it was written, being like a child, needing the presence of a mother and a midwife. If we read this book as an expression of the philosophy of the cosmos, we find in it the concepts of the Moreno’s future theories: surplus reality, spontaneity, co-creation, creation as an ongoing process, “encounter” of I and You as the basis for significant meetings.

Supervision plays an essential role in the process of learning and professional development in psychotherapy and training. High quality in supervision is a crucial part of the training to support and to guide trainees and to be a reliable point of reference in terms of practice and theory, technical and methodological standards, ethical issues, research and evaluation. Therefore, the main purpose of this book is to share ways of doing supervision in psychodrama among supervisors and trainers in different countries and to stimulate further discussion and development.

J.L. Moreno
This text was first published as a prelude to the 1953 complete edition of Who Shall Survive?, under the title ‘Preludes of the sociometric movement’. Two years later, in 1955 it was published as a stand-alone text in No.34 of the Sociometry Monographs, this time with the title ‘Preludes to my autobiography: Introduction to Who Shall Survive?’. Then in 1989 it was re-printed by Beacon House simply as ‘Preludes to my autobiography’. We hope it will be a helpful addition to both Moreno’s recently re-published autobiography, as well as his other publications on sociometry. Lulu Printings
