“I especially like the idea that your voice only can come forth truly in an open dialogue; this has been super useful for me personally, and professionally working with autistic children.”
I like this idea a lot, and would like to explore it further, is Problems of Dostoyevsky’s Poetics a good source for further reading on that idea? What other further reading sources might you recommend?
Thanks for you comment! I have added Problems of Dostoyevsky’s Poetics and Kaj Sotala’s sequence on IFS to my deep-dive bookmark folder. Do you recommend any of Bachtin’s other work in particular regarding dialogue? Other subjects?
There are probably better sources on dialogue than Bachtin, but that’s the one that got me. I’ve also read a few books by a Finnish psychiatrist that, Jakko Seikkula, that has developed a very dialogue centered—and Dostoevsky inspired—treatment for schizophrenia. But I think you can only find that in Swedish or Finnish.
On IFS, I’d probably recommend some book by Barry Schwartz, who started that school. Sotala’s post is more focused on explaining why the model—which is a bit nuts and hand-wavy—actually makes sense. But for actually getting stuff done and working on your psyche, the more hand-wavy approach is better.
