Psychoanalytic hypotheses on Narcissism

Abstract: So called Narcissism has a multilayer structure. It' a kind of “onion”. Each model , historically emerged, enlights one or more layers of this structure. We have considered main models or hypotheses i.e freudian, kleinian, Kernberg, Kohut, Mitchell, Gabbard, Lash and so on. Some models are more explicit, others more implicit. All models have their usefullness and their limitations. All models have their inspiration. We pay particular attention to the bionian and postbionian field models. Finally we try to move on toward a more clinic domain, with a case psychoanalytic history and some crossed mild conclusions.
