Typed papers. Some are original versions (including carbon copies) and some were retyped during preparation for two posthumous volumes of Rickman's work, Selected Contributions to Psycho-Analysis, edited by W Clifford M Scott (1957, 2003) and No Ordinary Psychoanalyst, edited by Pearl King (2003). Many items have been annotated and some have been given new titles. As it is often unclear which papers were produced by or for John Rickman and which were produced by his editors, dates provided are those of the original material, unless otherwise stated.
