The Editor-in-Chief of Psychoanalytic Perspectives during the Covid era reflects on her time in the world of analytic journals as the outside world was changing, noticing an editorial tendency to retract and become more insular during traumatic times. She urges psychoanalysts and others among us who are involved in the vital task of curating what psychoanalytic literature is ultimately published to intentionally move past the bounds of their inner circles to engage more fully with those outside, to move past known worlds, and to take up the mantle of engagement with grand themes of history and trauma in expanded psychoanalytic communities and with the world at large.
