Sacred Psychoanalysis” – an Interpretation Of

ABSTRACT From the 1970s the emergence of religion and spirituality in psychoanalysis is a unique development, given its traditional pathologizing stance. This research examines how and why ‘sacred psychoanalysis’ came about and whether this represents a new analytic movement with definable features or a diffuse phenomena within psychoanalysis that parallels developments elsewhere. After identifying the research context, a discussion of definitions and qualitative reflexive methodology follows. An account of religious and spiritual engagement in psychoanalysis in the UK and the USA provides a narrative of key people and texts, with a focus on the theoretical foundations established by Winnicott and Bion. This leads to a detailed examination of the literary narratives of religious and spiritual engagement understood from: Christian; Natural; Maternal; Jewish; Buddhist; Hindu; Muslim; Mystical; and Intersubjective perspectives, synthesized into an interpretative framework of sacred psychoanalysis. -

Syllabus PT 154 Comparative Psychoanalysis T. Morgan Fall 2018
Syllabus PT 154 Comparative Psychoanalysis T. Morgan Fall 2018 Wed. 3:30-5:30 CMPS: 30 Clock Hours NYGSP: 2 Credits Course Description This semester’s work will familiarize candidates with the motifs, idioms and preoccupations of a not- exhaustive list of schools of psychoanalysis as well as field influencers who fall between the theoretical cracks. We will aim to traverse a cross-section of meta-psychologies, diverse understandings of the human subject, unique concepts of cure, and (to the degree that ways of working are made apparent), various clinical techniques. Modern candidates will have the opportunity to prepare to interact with the ideas of many psychoanalytic tribes. Toward that end we will whet our appetites for Kleinian, Relational, Contemporary Freudian, Lacanian, Intersubjective, Feminist, and Interpersonal points of view. Objectives The candidate will be able to: • think historically about the genesis of transformations and developments in the field of psychoanalysis; • identify themes germane to discrete schools of psychoanalytic thought; and • employ psychoanalytic terminology such as “repression, conflict, dissociation, co-construction, thirdness, drive derivatives, internalized objects, regression, self-states, symbolization, “not-me”, trauma, wish, projective identification, introject, adaptation, ego defense, enigmatic messages, object a, attacks on linking, and more. Requirements *Reading requirements will, on average, tally about 50 pages a week. Pay attention to feelings aroused by the readings. *Come to class prepared to share what you loved and hated about the readings. *Submit, every other class, a 2-3 page, double-spaced written exploration of the last two week’s readings. Find what interests you and elaborate upon it. Email it to the instructor at [email protected] by Sunday before 6 pm the class before it is due if you want written commentary. -
The Apres-Coup, Apres Coup: Concerning Jean Laplanche Problématiques VI
The Apres-Coup, Apres Coup: Concerning Jean Laplanche Problématiques VI. L’Après-Coup1 Sergio Benvenuto Italian Council for Scientific Research Abstract Here the author examines the question of après-coup (afterwardsness) in psychoanalysis, commenting in particular on Jean Laplanche’s book, Après-Coup. The author appreciates Laplanche’s determination to avoid either a positivist interpretation of après-coup (as a “delay-action bomb”, as simply a delayed psychic effect) or an hermeneutic interpretation that makes of it a post-factum re-signification of past events. Yet at the same time, the author shows that Laplanche’s solution— which assumes an initial trauma to the subject, who must “translate” an ambiguous and enigmatic message originating from an adult other—ends up being, in effect, a clever combination of the two approaches, positivist and hermeneutic, that Laplanche was trying to avoid. Laplanche advances a much too linear theory, placing “the other” (that is, the desire of the adult) at the beginning of the process, while Lacan’s approach to après-coup opens up far more complex and disturbing perspectives for psychoanalysis. The author, having shown the limitations of Laplanche’s result (“the primacy of the other”), proposes his own interpretation of après-coup, wherein it would connect, in a unique way, the cause and the sense of the psychic world: a subsequent event in some way makes the sense of a preceding event to function as the cause of later psychic phenomena or symptoms. Introduction In time, later, we realize that the question of nachträglich – après-coup in French – is one of the central knots of psychoanalysis. -

DOI: 10.1177/0003065116675878 These two books, The Temptation of Biology: Freud’s Theories of Sexuality (hereafter, Temptation) and Between Seduction and Inspiration: Man (hereafter, Seduction), by the French psychoanalyst Jean Laplanche are complete English translations, compiled by Laplanche himself, of his major writings and lectures from 1992 through 1999 and published here in 2015 by the American press The Unconscious in Translation. Although Laplanche’s name is well known, linked with J.-B. Pontalis as co-author of The Language of Psycho-Analysis (1967; hereafter, Language), as well as from his Life and Death in Psychoanalysis (1970) and New Foundations for Psychoanalysis (1987), it is important to keep in mind that until his death in 2012 Laplanche was also in charge of the complete translation of the works of Freud from German into French, translating many of the papers himself. This process provided him a particularly intimate knowl- edge of certain aspects of Freud’s writing, not easily available to the exclusively anglophone reader of Strachey’s Standard Edition. -

Dilemma of Unconscious, Jouissance and Phallus: a Psychoanalytical Study of Gender and Identity
OF JOURNAL CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 19, 2020 DILEMMA OF UNCONSCIOUS, JOUISSANCE AND PHALLUS: A PSYCHOANALYTICAL STUDY OF GENDER AND IDENTITY Dr. Nipun Chaudhary Associate Professor, Dept. of English, Lovely Professional University, India Email: [email protected] Received: 14 April 2020 Revised and Accepted: 8 August 2020 ABSTRACT: Lacan escalates his insistence that woman is not a solidified or rigid entity rather she flows like the flow of the liquid and the rush of the feminine flow perforates masculine and garbed solidity of phallic prick and intensifies the fear of castration for the male. Irigaray advances and ramifies Lacanian assertion by adding that the feminine flow may not simply be measured as the hysteric or unrestrained discharge of female vagina; on the contrary the discharge of feminine olfactory is a real challenge for masculine solidity. Concisely, the feminine jouissance flows in its own pleasure, without any consideration of defying the masculine solidity. However, the feminine jouissance is liberated, redemptive and narcissistic and above it exists as a gratuitous pure jouissance; redeemed of any desire to dominate. KEYWORDS: Unconscious, Jouissance, Phallus Paper Freud undertook a challenge of dividing the human mind into three segments which, as a composite structure, is known as the topography of the human mind. Superego, ego, and id indulge in a dialogue to consummate the desire of the narcissistic ego which for Freud is the pleasure- seeking agency, i.e., id. According to Lacan, the ego is not a separate agency rather it is closely knit within the cathexis of libidinal energy. Love and illness transfer ego projection; Love transfers ego to the other body by cathexis. -

Lacan and Foulkes1
Volume 1 (Issue 2), 2012 GROUP ACTS AND MISSED ENCOUNTER: LACAN AND FOULKES1 Erica Burman Prologue The theme of action outside speech typically does not gain positive treatment in psychoanalytical contexts, with all such action vulnerable to being designated “acting out”, or at best “acting in”. But the question “how to act” transcends such false oppositions between acting and not acting, to topicalise instead ethical responsibility and social engagement. In this paper these themes are explored in terms of the relations between Lacanian psychoanalytic and Foulkesian group analytic ideas. The assertion of the priority of one model over the other, or the assimilation of one to the other is not aimed at here, but rather this paper seeks to highlight, and perhaps indicate, some potential evaluations of how each approach attempts to engage with the question of action. While Lacanian psychoanalysis often draws a strong boundary around the analytic space, resisting the generalization of psychoanalytic phenomena outside the clinic, the social model of the psyche to which group analysts are committed, means that no such absolute distinctions can be maintained. Paradoxically, group analysts seem rather more reluctant than Lacanians to discuss questions of ethics, preferring to talk about questions of democracy, although both models share an understanding of analytical process in terms of the 1 This article is a version of a paper delivered at APPI’s 17th Annual Congress (2010) entitled; How to Act – Ethics and the Psychoanalytic Clinic in a Culture of Suppression and Demand. 22 23 Lacunae promotion of (if also the impossibility of) free speech. The challenge therefore, is to find ways of both analyzing and intervening in, the contexts that give rise to analysis. -

It takes as its starting point the Lacanian dictum that “the big Other does not exist”, and then attempts to find a way that allows us to go beyond historicist discursive regimes diagnosing these regimes as a refusal to accept the nonexistence of the big Other. The research focuses as well on the discourse of being Heidegger articulated in Being and Time, and how its “failure” may be read from a Lacanian perspective. -
Against the Reproduction of Continental Philosophy of Religion
ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-018-0207-4 OPEN Hexing the discipline: against the reproduction of continental philosophy of religion Marika Rose1 & Anthony Paul Smith2 ABSTRACT There has been a generalised anxiety concerning the future of continental philosophy of religion as a discipline, with a number of books, articles, conferences, and presentations taking up this theme. This anxiety exists because as a discipline continental 1234567890():,; philosophy of religion lacks a clear claim to an identity. This article analyses the anxiety concerning the future of continental philosophy of religion as an anxiety of reproduction. By locating the philosopher’s anxiety within a wider anxiety of reproduction we begin to understand this anxiety through the queer anti-social critique of Lee Edelman. This anxiety is traced through three processes of reproduction: intellectual reproduction, disciplinary reproduction, and institutional reproduction. The article goes on to sketch out a position against the reproduction of continental philosophy of religion by taking on and celebrating the discipline’s improper nature. Appealing neither to secular reason nor to established traditions, we draw on the Malleus Maleficarum (as read through queer theory and non-philosophy) to craft various models for thought. Here we find abortion prized over the future of the race, miscegenation over blood purity, and impotence and infertility over the sovereign power of the father. These models are explored both in terms of their historical context and as pro- viding a different image of the work that can be carried out in the discipline of continental philosophy of religion. The article concludes by suggesting other perverse lines of relation that may be opened up when one gives up on the reproduction of the discipline.
