Nostalgia.
An attempt is made to differentiate between true and false nostalgia, with clinical illustrations from the analyses of a chronic psychotic patient, and a far less disturbed young woman, whose main symptom of vagueness clouded the analytic work, and her own perceptions and capacities. The significance of the differentiation for psychoanalytic work is stressed.
