The feminine among us
A dialogue with Winnicott
In my master's defense, I was strongly encouraged to release a book derived from my research, due to its importance for the psychoanalytic field.

"The feminine among us speaks of the feminine of all of us, humans. The feminine that makes knots when weaving the nets of the self. Fernanda Cristina Dias did a unique job in her dialogue with Winnicott : situate his contribution to the notions of female identity and sexuality in his theory of emotional development . In her fluid and very conceptually tied writing, she establishes a method where she first situates the historical, social and political environment and then develops a conceptual trajectory, thus creating historical, conceptual and institutional environments for the reception of the question of women."

Excerpt from the preface, by Renata Udler Cromberg
"Going through and re-presenting a historical-critical analysis of the understandings made by psychoanalysts, Fernanda Cristina Dias highlights the problem of Woman (or the feminine) in Winnicott's work , seeking to analyze its conceptual and descriptive aspects. its three existential dimensions (the female, the mother, and the grandmother) but also draws attention to one of the fundamental aspects of human nature itself: 'Every man owes a deep debt to a Woman'."
