On the Clinic of Psychosis — Guy Dana
In addition to a long-time concern with framework and setting, an ensuing search for new institutional strategies in treating psychoses leads to a proposal of two orientations: one based on translation and the other on the concept of perspective. The invention of perspective in the realm of pictorial representation may serve as a desirable model for analytic work with psychosis.
Logical Time of the Phantasm — Erik Porge
How does the incorporation of the signifiers determining the subject and their sedimentation as letters take place? The expression “eating the book” borrowed and promoted by Lacan offers one approach to this question.
Lacan, Pearl King, and the IPA: Clinical and Political Implications
A Workshop with Nicolas Guérin and Manuel Hernández
Dates to be announced
Psychoanalysis in the Institution — Ona Nierenberg
This clinical group will be oriented to the unique challenges and opportunities we encounter in hospitals, clinics, prisons, treatment programs, schools, and other institutions. We will explore the often surprising possibilities the analyst has to create and sustain space for the singular even in settings dominated by claims to the universal. Open to those currently working clinically in or with institutions.
On the One and the Pas-Tout: The Analytic Act — Paola Mieli
Pursuing our reflections on the relations between the subject and the collective, and the discourses that organize them, we will focus on the function of the One and the logic of the pas-tout in the analytic discourse. In light of the uniqueness of each analytic act, we will address the relation between universal, particular, and singular in the analytic field, as well as the logical times that mark the unfolding of the treatment and the end of an analysis.
