Brief reflection on contiguity/distance between Foulksian group analysis and Bionian group analysis. The Foulksian Group Analysis and the Bionian Group Analysis – two theoretical and applicative traces both active in the second half of the 20th century in England and in Europe – had parallel lives, peculiarly different, defined by the author as complementary: «while Bion was primarily interested in the Protomental and Sym-bolic Relational Universes», with consequent interventions on the group situema, «Foulkes preferred the analysis of the transference, the imaginary universe», with con-sequent his interventions on individual patients and to a much lesser extent on the whole group. The author’s account accompanies the reader through this intellectual and ther-apeutic adventure, also arriving at an “almost private” portrait of the two leaders of European group analysis.
