MLADEN NIKOLOV - THE FIRST BULGARIAN PSYCHOANALYST
The article examines the life of Mladen Nikolov, a Bulgarian psychologist, whom I define as the first Bulgarian psychoanalyst. It is based on facts from preliminary studies, which may be supplemented subsequently. It describes his life and how his training in psychoanalysis came about. The report also discusses whether he can be considered a psychoanalyst, given the way he has been trained. A common mistake about his place of graduation in psychology is pointed out and corrected.

Dutch Post-war Fiction Film through a Lens of Psychoanalysis
Dutch Post-war Fiction Film through a Lens of Psychoanalysis is a sequel to Humour and Irony in Dutch Post-war Fiction Film (AUP, 2016), but the two studies can be read separately. Because of the sheer variety of Fons Rademakers' oeuvre, which spans 'art' cinema and cult, genre film and historical epics, each chapter will start with one of his titles to introduce a key concept from psychoanalysis. It is an oft-voiced claim that Dutch cinema strongly adheres to realism, but this idea is put into perspective by using psychoanalytic theories on desire and fantasy. In the vein of cinephilia, this study brings together canonical titles (Als twee druppels water; Soldaat van Oranje) and little gems (Monsieur Hawarden; Kracht). It juxtaposes among others Gluckauf and De vliegende Hollander (on father figures); Flanagan and Spoorloos (on rabbles and heroes); De aanslag and Leedvermaak (on historical traumas); and Antonia and Bluebird (on aphanisis).

The Tripartite Matrix in the Developing Theory and Expanding Practice of Group Analysis
The Tripartite Matrix in the Developing Theory and Expanding Practice of Group Analysis explores the social unconscious in persons, groups and societies in terms of the \"un-acknowledged\" restraints and constraints of our social and cultural groupings.
In this context, Earl Hopper and an international team of contributors elucidate the theory and concept of the tripartite matrix as a tool for the deeper understanding of the human condition and for clinical work in various settings. They consider topics ranging from envy to intersectionality, and from addiction to the inability to mourn.
The Tripartite Matrix in the Developing Theory and Expanding Practice of Group Analysis will be of great interest to group analysts, psychoanalytical group therapists, psychoanalysts and psycho-dramatists, as well as to social scientists more generally. Its extensive bibliography will be of particular value to students.

PUBLICATION ACTIVITY AND PROMOTION OF PSYCHOANALYSIS IN BULGARIA UNTIL THE 1940S. CONTROVERSIES BETWEEN FREUDIANS AND NON-FREUDIANS: A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
This article examines the publication activity and popularization of S. Freud's ideas by Bulgarian psychoanalytic authors who worked actively in the period of the 20s - 40s of the 20th century, when it was the peak of the psychoanalytic movement in Bulgaria. With the establishment of communist power on 9/09/1944, our country fell under Soviet influence, and the spread of psychoanalysis was prohibited; Marxist-Leninist philosophy is declared to be the only correct one. The second emphasis is related to the presentation of the discussions and controversies between Freudians and non-Freudians. The role of the journals \"Philosophical Review\", \"Zlatorog\", etc., whose editors open their pages widely for the publication of psychoanalytic writings, as well as other psychological and philosophical articles, is emphasized for the dissemination of psychoanalysis. The contribution of the great philosopher Academician Dimitar Mikhalchev in this regard is indisputable. By popularizing the psychoanalytic ideas of Freud (and much less of K. Jung and A. Adler), and also by writing their original psychoanalytic works, Bulgarian psychoanalytically oriented authors contribute to the enrichment of social and intellectual life with new ideas, values, and guidelines of thinking.

Clinical psychoanalysis and the crisis of postmodernity: from liquidity to a new neo-victorian puritanism?
The liquidity of postmodernity would appear to have been displaced, within the mainstream, by a process of re-solidification under the aegis of strong values seeking cultural hegemony. The Author designates this shift as a form of \"neo-Victorian puritanism\", antithetical to the past in terms of ideological content yet equally prescriptive and homogenizing. At the level of clinical practice, its most salient effect manifests itself in the eclipse of sexuality as a theme, insofar as the clinician often refrains from engaging with it, not least out of concern for being perceived as deviating from the prevailing \"neo-Victorian\" cultural norm.
