Psychoanalysis in time of historical catastrophes, war and pandemic.

12 noon-3pm (CST): ZOOM


About the presentation: A recent book was published in France by a historian:  "The unconscious or the oblivion of history". I will contend that  the psychoanalysis of traumas and psychosis deals with history, more precisely with cut out pieces of history, it requests a specific kind of transference which I will describe through clinical vignettes. 

Francoise Davoine, PhD is a writer, psychoanalyst, and a retired faculty member from the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris where she lead weekly seminars on "Madness and the Social lnk" for forty years. She also worked for thirty years as an analyst in psychiatric hospitals and offered weekly outdoor consultations. She was a Member of Lacan's Freudian school until his death in 1981. She is a member of the ISPS and the US branch and an Erikson scholar at the Austen Riggs Center.
