ABSTRACT

Mnica Zuretti also sees a way forward out of the materialistic, atheistic society at the end of the millennium. She emphasises the cosmic in a way that highlights just how much it lies beneath all of Moreno’s work and brings it closer to the surface in a way that makes it clearer. There is scope to argue that the Morenian concept of the co-unconscious has connections with Wilfred Bion’s ideas of the unconscious processes of a basic assumption group (Bion 1961). Like Bion, Zuretti’s work is rooted in clinical practice, and her chapter reflects her psychoanalytic background, as well as that of a psychodramatist who studied with Moreno. However, Zuretti’s chapter also stresses, in a way similar to the systems theories of family therapists, how all of us network in the past, present and future.
